   Should I defer applying to Law School?

   • However, for most schools, we don’t suggest you defer unless you feel very strongly that it is necessary. Say you plan to start Law school in August of 2025. This means you plan to apply in the 2024–2025 admissions cycle. Working backward, you’ll want to submit your applications, if possible, by the end of October 2024.
