St. Louis University announced yesterday that it is relocating its law school (some 1,100 students, faculty and staff in all)into an 11 story building in downtown St. Louis. The move is being made in large part to help reinvigorate the downtown area.

Even if SLU isn't a law school of interest, we hope you understand that not even law schools remain static and, hence, why it's crucial to fully research every school you are considering.

Just a gentle reminder for anyone considering the February LSAT that today is the final registration deadline. You can click here to register.

A study by the LSSSE indicates that transfer students don't have a lot of problems succeeding academically at their new schools. However, they do have trouble fully integrating with their new classmates.

Let us first state we love this study as the empirical data will make a lot of applicants and students feel much better and more informed about their decisions. However, this really shouldn't come as a surprise. Transfer students tended to be at the top of their previous schools. And since they missed the 1L bonding experiences with their new classmates, it makes sense that they would also have a bit more difficulty fully integrating.

Our timeline page has been updated for January and February activities.
