How LSAT Dates Correspond to Admissions Cycles
LSAC conceptualizes the year as an academic one which begins in the summer (after May, when the Spring term ends) and ends the following April. Hence the "first" exam of any admissions cycle is given in the summer (June). The most popular test dates are administered in the Fall term (August through November). And the final administrations are in the Spring term (January through April). All law schools accept LSAT scores from exams that are administered by January of any admissions year-- hence, the January 15, 2022 LSAT will be the final LSAT that ALL schools accept for admission in 2022. Most law schools, however, accept scores from all of the LSATs administered during the June-to-April annual cycle (and some may even accept later dates). The Spherical Schedule below depicts the 2020-2021 admissions cycle, which applies to candidates that will enter law school in August 2021. For advice on how to choose an LSAT date click here.
