Admissions

Application Deadlines

Vermont Law School consistently attracts intellectually curious and motivated students who bring diverse perspectives, interests, and talents to the school. Candidates with degrees in fields ranging from civil engineering to philosophy, earned from institutions as varied as Yale and Warren Wilson College, find at VLS a distinctive community that encourages their passions and aspirations. Shaped by their VLS experience, graduates regularly become law clerks and litigators, policy makers and legislators, defenders of the environment, advocates for social justice—and leaders in their fields.

VLS students quickly recognize one another’s shared desire to make a substantial impact and, as a result, build personal and professional relationships that are both supportive and durable. VLS graduates tend to remain connected to one another, to faculty members, and to others in the school community. We strongly encourage prospective students to visit campus and meet faculty, administrators, and current students face to face and determine if VLS is a strong fit. If a campus visit is not feasible, interested candidates are invited to schedule a phone interview to talk with an admissions counselor at any point in the consideration or application process. Take this opportunity not only to learn about VLS but also about the intricacies of the law school search and application process.
