Apply to Fordham Law
Submit your LSAC application online. If you submit a paper application, then the processing time will be longer.
When completing your JD application to Fordham Law, you will be required to pick either the full-time or part-time division. It is not possible to apply to both divisions in the same application cycle.
The application fee is $75. Application fee waivers: To apply for a need-based fee waiver, you must fill out the fee waiver application. Completed fee waiver applications should be emailed to [email protected]. LSAC fee waiver recipients automatically receive a fee waiver when you submit your application. You do not need to apply for a need-based fee waiver through our office.
