How do you gain admission to Columbia School of Law?
Entry into Columbia Law is one of the most competitive in the country and competition for the approximately 360 first-year (and 45 transfer) spots is intense. For the class of 2008, 378 students matriculated from an applicant pool of 8020. The 25th percentile LSAT for this class was a 168, while the 75th percentile stood at 173; the 25th percentile GPA was a 3.50 while the 75th percentile ranked at 3.80. Columbia is also one of the few law schools to offer prospective students an Early Decision program, which allows applicants to be notified early of the admissions office’s decision (usually in December if the application was submitted September-October). As with undergraduate early decision programs, Columbia E.D. applicants have the chance to be deferred and re-evaluated for the Regular Decision pool, but must also bind themselves to enroll at Columbia if they are accepted early.
