BSL reviews applicants’ academic records and employment history in determining acceptance.
BSL does not require an LSAT score as part of the application unless your degree is from a country foreign to the United States. We do recommend that students with minimal work experience and a recent undergraduate degree with a GPA below 2.75 submit an LSAT score. Applicants should include a detailed work history.
