The LawReady portfolio and certificate, which will include detailed information about student participation and performance in the program, can be included as part of a law school application. It can be used as an additional factor in a holistic admission process. LawReady measures a broad range of skills, abilities, and personal characteristics selected based on LSAC’s research linking these traits to success in law school and the legal profession. By taking additional factors into account, LawReady may help your school identify a broader pool of applicants who are more prepared and more likely to succeed at your institution.

As the developer of the LSAT, the best predictor of law school success, LSAC has decades of experience in assessment science and in supporting the journeys of generations of aspiring lawyers. LawReady builds upon leading research to provide an innovative and unique approach to prelaw education that meets students earlier in their undergraduate careers. The program enhances prelaw education and guidance that may already exist on campus and works in collaborative partnership with colleges and universities to provide their students with a roadmap to develop the crucial skills, abilities, and personal qualities needed to succeed from prelaw through practice. Together, we can create a pathway where any student who is curious about law or who may never have considered law school can see themselves achieving their personal and professional goals through law … and know with clarity how to get there.
