LSAT Volumes Continue to Increase

Testing Year June 2017–February 2018

New DAILY Volume Reports on LSAC.org

We know that the data LSAC collects about the applicant pool is an important benefit for law schools and prelaw advisors. To make this data even more accessible, LSAC’s Applicant and Application Volume Summary data reporting has undergone a major makeover. With our new, interactive report, users can easily see the increase or decrease in applicant and application volumes across the US and Canada. The aggregate data is available to all without a password. The best feature of these reports is that they are updated every evening! Please don’t hesitate to contact Josiah Evans, LSAC’s assistant director of social science research, at reports.feedback@LSAC.org if you have any questions or suggestions for improvements of these reports.
