Admissions snapshot.

Pick any ABA-approved law school: acceptance rate, median LSAT, and median undergraduate GPA — straight from its official ABA Standard 509 Information Report, with the year labeled and the source cited.

Unofficial guide. This site is independent — not affiliated with the ABA, LSAC, or any law school. Figures below are transcribed from each school's published 509 report. Medians describe the middle of the entering class, not a cutoff: half the class scored above, half below.

How to read a 509 report

  • Median LSAT / median UGPA describe the middle of the entering full-time class. A 173 median means half the class scored 173 or higher — it is not a minimum, and schools admit meaningfully above and below it.
  • Acceptance rate = offers of admission ÷ completed applications, as reported on the 509. It counts offers, not matriculants — yield (who actually enrolls) is a separate number.
  • Compare within a tier, not across the whole list. A school's medians reflect who applies there, which reflects geography, cost, and self-selection as much as "quality."
  • One year is a snapshot. Medians move a point or two year to year. If a school's median jumps, check whether the class size changed — small classes swing more.
  • Every ABA school publishes one. If the school you want isn't in our verified set yet, pull its 509 directly: the ABA's Standard 509 Information Reports page links every school's current report.

Our read: applicants overweight the median LSAT and underweight everything the 509 doesn't show — scholarship generosity, bar support, and where graduates actually land. Use the snapshot to build a realistic school list, then read the bar passage and employment outcomes pages before you fall in love with any school.
