LSAT and Law School Data Assembly Service

The Law School Admission Test (LSAT), administered by Law Services of Newtown, Penn., is required. Students must apply to take the test directly to: Law Services, Box 2001, Newtown, Pennsylvania 18940, www.lsac.org, 215.968.1001.

Emory also requires use of the Law School Data Assembly Service (LSDAS) provided by Law Services. The LSDAS submits an unofficial copy of the applicant's college transcript, along with the report containing the LSAT score, to the law school.

You should take the LSAT no later than December of the year before entering law school. Applicants who take the February LSAT during the same year they are planning to enroll are at a disadvantage in the admission process.
