Beginning Fall 2019, UI College of Law will no longer require entering students provide us with official undergraduate transcripts. We are now able to consider the official transcripts you provided to LSAC for your CAS report as our official transcripts. This does not include coursework completed after your final application was accepted or any transcripts not disclosed during your initial application. If you expect to receive an additional transcript after your law school application was accepted, you will need to provide an official transcript to the College of Law. Should you fail to timely submit any additional transcript(s) discovered during the application review to the Office of Admissions prior to July 1 you will not be allowed to register for classes. If you decide to have transcripts sent electronically, have them sent directly to rrharrison@uidaho.edu. You may also have them sent by traditional mail to:

Admitted students have the option to defer their acceptance for one year on a case by case basis. Students interested in deferring should e-mail their request with a brief explanation to lawadmit@uidaho.edu. The request would then need to be approved by the Director of Admissions. This process typically takes 1-2 weeks. If a deferral is granted, a letter will be sent to the student confirming the decision. There is no guarantee for the same amount of scholarships as the original admission year, but students will be evaluated for scholarships with the new pool of applicants and awarded on that basis.
