Happy September!  Soon the weather will cool down and it will feel like study time.  The law school applications are starting to roll out.  We should see all of them by October 1.  Typically our two local schools here in Seattle release their applications on that date.  While you want to keep studying and focusing on the LSAT, there is a task that you can take on right now that will take some time to complete but not on your end.  You are going to want to request your transcripts and get them sent to LSAC.  You need to send transcripts from every school where you have received college credits, community college, Running Start, a summer quarter fulfilling a math or foreign language requirement, etc.  Even if a school's grades show up on another school's transcript, you still need to send the transcripts in.  If you are still in school, you need to send transcripts right now.  The grades from fall quarter or semester won't be in in time for you to send off your applications.   When you get the grades at the end of this next term, send an updated transcript to LSAC and they will automatically forward it on to any school that has already requested your information.

If you went to a school that used evaluations instead of grades, you will need to have your evaluations sent to LSAC.  They have a special process for that so be sure to follow the website's instructions.

There is a transcript request form available on LSAC's website.  However, it makes the most sense to contact your school/schools first and ask them what their procedure is.  Some use that form and others do not.  It will take about 3 weeks from when you request the transcripts before they show up in your account under the academic summary report.
