Because of lower birthrates during the Great Recession, the college-age population will shrink beginning in 2025. What does this mean for law schools?
Legal Profession
LSAC has put in place a team of experts that offer a suite of individually tailored services designed to help law schools meet their institutional goals.
The legal employment and law school admission markets are closely intertwined. Fortunately, we have been enjoying a very strong job market for law school graduates for at least five years running, but that may be about to change.
LSAC LawHub® has come a long way since it launched early last year to provide LSAT prep tools to candidates, but we think there’s even more this platform can do — for candidates, law students, and those who’ve already earned their degrees.
There are many ways to make an impact in law, but one we don’t often hear much about is how people become judges and justices. During a recent LSAC webinar, I was joined by two women who took unique paths in law and are now breaking barriers as members of the judiciary, along with a third pathbreaker who now works to help law school candidates make their own successful transitions to the legal profession.
LSAC joins the entire legal community and nation in mourning the loss of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and we offer our condolences to her family and friends.
On Memorial Day, we honor and give gratitude to the brave and selfless individuals who have proudly served our country.
In this time of hardship, if you are thinking about the law as your future profession, I ask you to renew your commitment to the importance of your role as future lawyers in upholding the rule of law. You are needed now more than ever.

Derrick Sawyer made the decision to pursue a legal education later in life than most students do. For him, though, the desire to be a lifelong learner just comes naturally.
