Each year, OU Law welcomes a distinguished set of students from a variety of backgrounds.
To be eligible for admission into the Juris Doctor program, an applicant must hold a baccalaureate degree from an accredited college or university prior to registration. All applicants must take the Law School Admission Test, LSAT, which is administered approximately eight times per year in a virtual setting. In lieu of the LSAT, students can also take the GRE to meet this requirement. OU Law also requires each student to register for the Credential Assembly Service (CAS, formerly LSDAS) through www.LSAC.org. Applicants should take the LSAT as early as possible, but no later than April of the year in which admission to OU Law is sought.
