must have class ranking for application?


Can anybody tell me if I need to provide GPA for application?
My university does adopt GPA grade system and thus does not provide any official GPA . I am using Transcription Evaluation Service so they will know what my grades are like anyway. I know that NYU allow me to answer "N/A" in the application when there is no official GPA but will I be adversely treated if I answer N/A to the other law schools as well?

Hi Guys,

Can anyone help me out. I have already submitted my transcripts to LSAC. I am now planning to submit a separate letter from my University attesting to the fact that it does not include class rankings. Therefore, I ask will this statement need to be enclosed with any thing else such as a transcript request form or will a letter sealed with the Law School's seal mailed directly to you suffice?

Thanks a lot in advance!


Hi sah130.
After sending my transcripts to LSAC, I realized that I'd have to provide a statement from the universities which I graduated from declaring they don't provide a class rank. In that sense, I sent an e-mail to LSAC asking them whether there is any specific form I'd have to send along with such statements. Please see below their reply:
"Thank you for your email. The rank statement will be added to the transcript documents for the institution so you can print out a new Transcript Request form and include it with the statement."
I hope this information could help you!
Good luck!
