Come from a low-income, disadvantaged, marginalized, underrepresented, and/or diverse background
Does the applicant have significant financial need such that they would be unable to access Spivey Consulting Group’s services without the Pro Bono Program?
How would the applicant’s perspective coming from a low-income, disadvantaged, marginalized, underrepresented, and/or diverse background contribute to the diversity of the legal profession?
How well does the application reflect the applicant’s purpose, thoughtfulness, and commitment?
How significant an impact could Spivey Consulting Group’s services make on the applicant’s ability to reach their stated goals?
Please note that there is a preference for applicants who already have one or more LSAT scores on file or who are registered for the August 2025 LSAT. However, we understand that that is not everyone’s timeline, and we very much encourage you to apply even if you will not have an LSAT score by August. Applicants without LSAT scores on file are accepted to the program every year.
We do not evaluate applicants based on the relative competitiveness of their law school profiles.
We select applicants from diverse backgrounds, including all types of undergraduate institutions, geographic regions, cultural backgrounds, professional experiences, academic interests, and goals.
No applications will be read prior to the deadline, and there is no preference for earlier submissions. If you are taking the June LSAT, please wait to submit your application until you have your LSAT score.

Spivey Consulting Group partners with numerous pipeline programs across the country with the goal of increasing access and diversity in law school and the legal profession. We offer both no-cost and heavily discounted options for assistance, including free admissions strategy presentations, free or reduced one-day admissions bootcamps, and flexible options for more individualized and intensive work directly with program participants and/or mentors.
If you work with a legal education access-oriented pipeline or pre-law program, please reach out to us, and we would be happy to schedule a meeting to discuss how we may be able to help.
