As amended through March 21, 2024
Section 4 - Late Applications for General Bar Examination

Any applicant who failed to file a timely Application for Admission by Examination under Section 2 or Section 3 above may file a late Application for Admission by Examination with the Board from September 2nd to November 1st preceding the February examination for which he or she wishes to sit or February 2nd to April 1st preceding the July examination for which he or she wishes to sit. A filing fee of $725.00 must accompany the Application if the applicant has previously registered as a law student as provided in Rule III, Section 2(A) or 3, or by a filing fee of $1,025.00 if the applicant has not previously registered as a law student as provided in Article III, Section 2(A) or 3. Applicants admitted in other jurisdictions may be required to pay additional fees for character investigations. Such applicants must contact the Board of Bar Admissions Office for the amount of the additional fees required, if any.

When an Application for Admissions by Examination is filed later than the prescribed deadlines the Board may act, but shall not be required to act, upon such application in time to permit the applicant to take such approaching examination.

However, under no circumstances will an application to sit for the examination be accepted after the prescribed late deadlines in this Section.
