Law School Admission Council
The Law School Admission Council (LSAC) is a nonprofit organization that plays a crucial role in the law school admission process in the United States and Canada. It provides services to both prospective law students and law schools, including the administration of the Law School Admission Test (LSAT), which is a standardized test used for law school admissions. LSAC also offers resources and tools to help students navigate the application process.
In addition to the LSAT, LSAC manages the Credential Assembly Service (CAS), which streamlines the application process by compiling applicants' academic records and letters of recommendation. The organization aims to promote diversity and access in legal education, ensuring that all qualified candidates have the opportunity to pursue a legal career.
