Admitted J.D. Students
Congratulations on your admission to Chicago-Kent! What's next?
Whether you have already decided to attend Chicago-Kent this fall or are still evaluating your options, this site contains a number of resources to assist you. Please feel free to contact us with any questions or to arrange for a current law student, faculty member, or alum to contact you. You may reach our office at 312.906.5020 or admissions@kentlaw.iit.edu.
Schedule a Visit
We have scheduled a number of special visit opportunities for admitted students during the spring, and we hope that you will be able to join us for one of these programs. We also encourage you to stop by the law school at any time to walk through the building on your own and chat informally with students. If you would like to schedule a guided tour or visit a first-year class, you can use our online visit registration forms or call our office.
