Transcript Requirement

All official final certified transcripts must be sent to LSAC by October 1, 2025. Please do not send them directly to our Registrar's Office.

By October 1st of each student’s first year of enrollment at Maryland Carey Law, the Office of Registration & Enrollment (ORE) must have official transcripts verifying all academic credits undertaken and degree(s) conferred. If you enrolled in courses or received a degree after you submitted your application for admission, arrange for final, certified transcripts (showing degrees, where appropriate) from every college or university you have attended to be sent to LSAC in an updated Credential Assembly Service (CAS) Report that will be sent to Maryland Carey Law and that will be provided to the ORE.

The copies attached to your (CAS) Report will not suffice if they are not final and must show an undergraduate degree was conferred. It is not sufficient to submit final, certified transcripts that were initially sent to you. 

Students whose transcripts have not been received by October 1st of the first year of enrollment will not be permitted to continue enrollment.
