Application requirements

2 to 2

Updated for 2025-2026 application cycle

You are required to answer each of the questions below. 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.

Inconsistencies between the content of your law school application and that of a future bar application can result in an investigation by bar examiners, and lack of candor in and of itself may be enough to deny certification to practice in some jurisdictions.

If you answer ?Yes? to any of these questions, you must describe the event(s), including why, when, and where it occurred. Describe what disciplinary actions were taken. Answering ?Yes? to any of these questions does not necessarily preclude your admission.

Should a sanction or action, criminal arrest, investigation, or conviction occur after you have submitted your application, you must promptly notify the Admissions Office in writing. An addition to your record may, but does not necessarily, result in a change in admission status. If you have any questions, please contact the Oregon Law Admissions Office.

1. Have you ever been placed on academic warning or probation, suspended, expelled or been required to withdraw, had a scholarship or award revoked, or been the subject of any other disciplinary action or proceedings for academic or social misconduct in your post-secondary education (beyond high school)?

2. Have you ever been placed on probation, suspended, expelled, terminated or otherwise disciplined by any professional organization, state agency, or place of employment?

3. Including any matters that may have been expunged, except expunged juvenile matters, have you ever been cited, arrested, charged, or convicted of a criminal offense?

4. Are there any such disciplinary actions, charges, or proceedings referenced in the three questions above pending or expected to be brought against you?

Hello from the Knight Law Center in Eugene, Oregon!

Since 1876, the University of Oregon has served the state, nation, and world through a commitment to exceptional teaching, discovery, and service. As part of this mission, Oregon Law prepares students to think critically, communicate clearly, and lead with integrity. Rooted in Oregon's spirit of innovation and public service, we educate the whole person--developing skilled advocates, creative problem-solvers, and socially conscious leaders equipped to make a difference in a diverse and interconnected world.

Your application is your opportunity to show us not just what you've accomplished--but who you are and where you're headed. We want to understand your academic journey, your goals, and the unique experiences that have shaped your perspective. Your voice matters, and we're excited to learn how you might contribute to the Oregon Law community.

As you complete your application, please keep in mind that integrity is a cornerstone of the legal profession--and of any career path grounded in legal education. Whether you plan to practice law or use your degree in another field, honesty, accuracy, and full disclosure are essential. In fact, a lack of candor alone may be grounds for denial of bar admission on moral character grounds. You also have a continuing duty to disclose any relevant updates or additional information that arises after submission. We expect you to approach this process with the same ethical standards you'll carry forward in your professional life.

The University of Oregon School of Law is fully accredited by the American Bar Association and complies with all ABA standards. Per ABA Standard 504(a):

"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."

We're excited that you're considering Oregon Law. This is your next step toward becoming the kind of leader the world needs--thoughtful, driven, and ethical.

Thank you for applying--and Go Ducks!
