North Carolina Central University School of Law requests that applicants submit only two (2) written recommendations through LSAC's letter of recommendation service. It is important that the recommenders be able to comment honestly about the applicant's ability to do well in law school and in the legal profession upon graduation. Please ask the authors to provide substantive information with comments about all the following areas:
 Intelligence/Reasoning Ability
 Individuality of Thought/Creativity
 Initiative/Motivation
 Judgment/Maturity
 Written Communication Skills
 Oral Communication Skills
 Integrity
 Leadership Ability
 Analytical abilities
 Academic achievements
 Unique talents
 Community involvement
LSDAS reports will not be considered complete without two (2) recommendations. You may submit as many as three (3) recommendations.
All recommendations must be received or processed by LSAC as received on or before March 31st of the year of anticipated enrollment.
A helpful recommendation can address your written and oral communication skills. Generally, academic contacts know your written or oral communication abilities. However, many of our applicants have been out of school for several years before they apply to law school. An unhelpful recommendation is one that comments generally on an applicant's character and demeanor.
The Law School requires applicants to utilize LSAC's Letter of Recommendation Service. To use this service, follow the directions for submitting letters of recommendation outlined in the LSAT/LSDAS Registration and Information Book or LSAC's website, www.lsac.org.
