A Washington (DC) Law School Forum

Dear Prelaw Advisor:

I am pleased to invite you and your students to the annual Washington, DC Law School Forum.

Washington, DC Law School Forum
Saturday, June 18 (10:00 am–4:00 pm)
Marriott Wardman Park
2660 Woodley Road

Admission is free. Registration is available online at www.LSAC.org/lawschoolforums, and a participating school list will be available shortly.

This is an excellent opportunity for prospective students to talk with representatives of over 180 LSAC-member law schools; obtain admission materials, catalogs, and financial aid information; and attend live informational sessions. To save time at the forum, please recommend that your students preregister at www.LSAC.org/lawschoolforums. Prelaw advisors do not have to preregister for the forum. Simply check in at the registration desk when you arrive.

Several panel presentations and workshops will be offered, including a workshop designed to help attendees make the most of their time at the forum; a discussion of issues of particular relevance to diverse applicants; and workshops on the application process, the legal profession, the LSAT, and financing a legal education.

You can find a list of scheduled times for the workshops at www.lsac.org/jd/choose/law-school-recruitment-forums-workshops.asp

For more information, please encourage students to check the Law School Admission Council website at www.LSAC.org or call 215.968.1001.

Prelaw advisors from HBCU, HACU, and Native American institutions can contact Yessenia García-Lebrón at ygarcia@LSAC.org to determine reimbursement eligibility for prelaw advisors and students to attend the forums. The application deadline for the DC forum is Friday, May 6. For direct access to the guidelines and forms, log in to www.LSAC.org and select Forum Subsidy Information from the Events & Recruitment drop down menu on the left. If you do not have a username and password to log in to the Prelaw Advisors area of www.LSAC.org, please e-mail prelaw@LSAC.org.

Prelaw advisors are invited to join the law school representatives for lunch and to enjoy complimentary beverages throughout the day. Please stop by the registration desk upon your arrival to pick up a name badge and lunch ticket.

We hope you will also post a flier to inform your students about the forum in your area. Fliers can be found at www.lsac.org/members/EventsRecruitment/ls-forum-fliers.asp.

If you need additional fliers or would like a camera-ready ad to include in your campus newspaper, please call Judy DiBenedetto at 215.968.1228 or e-mail to jdibenedetto@LSAC.org. If you have further questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me at 215.968.1297 or abrandt@LSAC.org. Also, please check LSAC.org for a complete listing of other prelaw informational events coming to your area. We appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you and your students at the forum!
