American Bar Association
Standard 504. Qualifications for Admission to the Bar

In addition to a bar examination, there are character, fitness, and other qualifications for admission to the bar in every U.S. jurisdiction. Applicants are encouraged to determine the requirements for any jurisdiction in which they intend to seek admission by contacting the jurisdiction. Addresses for all relevant agencies are available through the National Conference of Bar Examiners at www.ncbex.org.

Because of the high ethical standard to which lawyers are held, the failure to disclose an act or event such as the ones described below is often more significant, and leads to more serious consequences, than the act or event itself. Failure to provide truthful answers, failure to disclose answers, or failure to inform the Admissions Office of any changes to your answers, may result in the revocation of admission (without refund of tuition) prior to law school, during law school, or even after graduation, or disciplinary action by the Law School, or denial of permission to practice law by the state in which you seek admission. You have a continuing duty to update any changes to your application from the time you apply and throughout your time as a Creighton Law student.

1. Have you ever been charged, arrested or cited (as an adult or a juvenile) for any crime other than a minor traffic violation? You must include all offenses involving alcohol. Disclosure is required regardless of the disposition, whether the record was sealed or expunged, or whether you were told you did not need to disclose such events.

*Please Note: If you answer yes to any of the following character and fitness questions, you must submit an attachment including all relevant information (where appropriate), including but not limited to:

Dates
Name of the charge
Level of offense (e.g., first-degree misdemeanor, fourth-degree felony)
City and state
Final disposition
A description of the facts and circumstances surrounding the event and its resolution
Whether you have completed all requirements of sentencing.

Have you ever been a party to a civil lawsuit or an administrative proceeding, including but not limited to bankruptcy, marital dissolutions, or lawsuits involving debt collection?
Have you ever been warned, suspended, expelled, placed on probation, or otherwise disciplined by any professional or social organization?
Have you ever been warned, suspended, or disciplined, placed on academic or disciplinary probation, dropped, expelled, or requested or advised to resign from any post-secondary school, college, university, professional school, or law school?
Were you ever the subject of a complaint, probable cause hearing, or other initial inquiry for any academic or non-academic reasons at any post-secondary school, college, university, professional school, or law school?
Have you ever been dismissed, discharged, or requested to resign, by an employer?
Have you ever defaulted or are you currently in default on a financial obligation?
Have you had any gaps in your education or employment?
