U.S. NEWS & WORLD REPORT — Because law school admission is a rolling process, applicants will not receive all their decisions at once. Waiting can be hard, but no news isn’t necessarily bad news. Some schools may take many months to make a final decision. So, don’t panic if you haven’t heard back by March. You can send a brief update if you’re worried, but communicating your frustration to schools will not come across well. What about the law schools where you have been accepted? They will usually ask you to confirm your intent to attend by placing one seat deposit or more.
