Please note that your Test score will NOT be automatically canceled if you decide to leave the Test early due to illness or for any other reason. In order to cancel your Test score, you must cancel your Test score in accordance with the method described in Section 28 of this Agreement.
For Candidates Taking the Test Remotely — Test Issues/Complaints/Feedback.

If you encounter any issue during the Test administration and you wish to submit either a complaint or feedback to LSAC, you must follow the Procedure for Submitting Complaints in Section 30(a) of this Agreement or the Procedure for Submitting Feedback in Section 30(b) of this Agreement (as applicable):
1. Procedure for Submitting Complaints: If you want to submit an official Test complaint, you must visit Sign In to your LSAC Account, navigate to the LSAT Status page, and then click the “Submit Test Day Complaint or Feedback” link for the applicable Test administration. In order to submit an official Test complaint, you must: (1) select the appropriate “Complaint Category”; (2) select the appropriate “Complaint Type”; (3) describe your issue; (4) click the “This is an official LSAT complaint” button; and (5) submit your complaint. LSAC will investigate the issues and concerns identified in your complaint. During any such investigation of an issue or complaint, LSAC will place a hold on your file pending the results of its investigation. This placement of a hold on your account may result in a delay in the reporting of your Test score and a delay in the issuance of your CAS Reports. If you elect to submit an official Test complaint, you will be able to elect whether to keep your Test score, cancel your Test score following LSAC’s investigation of your complaint, or, if you are eligible, take a re-Test during the current Test administration period. If LSAC’s investigation confirms that your complaint is valid and you then decide to cancel your Test score, LSAC may provide you with free registration for a single instance of a future Test that must be used within the next three (3) consecutive Test administrations after the Test administration for which you canceled your Test score or, if you are eligible, you may take a re-Test during the current Test administration period; provided, that, you must inform LSAC, at the time that you cancel your Test score, of the specific Test administration during the current Test administration period or within the next three (3) consecutive Test administrations that you will be taking the re-Test; and, provided, further, that if LSAC is unable to administer the Test to you during the current Test administration period or within the next three (3) consecutive Test administration periods after the Test administration for which you canceled your score, then LSAC will provide you with free registration for a future Test administration. If LSAC does not confirm that your complaint is valid, you will be able to elect whether to keep your Test score or cancel your Test score following the completion of LSAC’s investigation of your complaint; provided, however, you will not be entitled to free registration for a single instance of a future Test if LSAC’s investigation does not result in the verification of your complaint. In order for your complaint to be investigated by LSAC, your complaint must be entered into your online LSAC account within two (2) calendar days of the date of your applicable Test administration starting from the day after your Test administration. It is your responsibility to keep proof of LSAC’s receipt of your complaint; provided, however, no such proof of receipt will be accepted more than fourteen (14) calendar days after the date of the Test. Please note that the availability of your Test score may be delayed pending the review of your complaint.
2. Procedure for Submitting Feedback: If you want to submit feedback rather than an official Test complaint, you must visit Sign In to your LSAC Account, navigate to the LSAT Status page, and then click the “Submit Test Day Complaint or Feedback” link for the applicable Test administration. In order to submit feedback to LSAC, you must: (1) select the appropriate “Complaint Category”; (2) select the appropriate “Complaint Type”; (3) describe your issue; (4) click the “This is not an official LSAT complaint” button; and (5) submit your feedback. In your submission, it is your responsibility and obligation to indicate that you would like LSAC to address your issue as “feedback” rather than a “complaint.” Your indication that the communication is to be regarded as “feedback” rather than a “complaint” is necessary to prevent the placement of a hold on your LSAC file. If you submit feedback, LSAC will use the information you provide to help improve the Test experience going forward. LSAC will not place a hold on your LSAC file, and no additional remedies (e.g., extension of the cancellation period, free registration for a future Test during the next three (3) consecutive Test administrations, etc.) will be provided to you.
For Candidates Taking the Test in Test Centers — Test Issues/Complaints/Feedback.

Although LSAC, third-party Test staff, and local Test center staff make every effort to provide a suitable Test-taking environment, LSAC cannot guarantee that conditions will be optimal at all Test administrations. Under no circumstances will LSAC be held responsible for Test center conditions. If you encounter an issue during a Test administration at a Test center, you must perform the following actions: (i) report the problem to the Test proctor, and (ii) submit your complaint, in writing, via your online LSAC account according to the directions set forth in Section 30(a) of this Agreement. In order for your complaint to be investigated by LSAC, your complaint must be entered into your online LSAC account within two (2) calendar days of the date of your applicable Test administration starting from the day after your Test administration. It is your responsibility to keep proof of LSAC’s receipt of your complaint; provided, however, no such proof of receipt will be accepted more than fourteen (14) calendar days after the date of the Test. Please note that the availability of your Test score may be delayed pending the review of your complaint.

If you witness or suspect a security violation before, during, or after the Test, please email LSAC at: testsecurity@LSAC.com.
Compromises in the Registration, Testing, Test Scoring, or Test Score Reporting Processes, and Group Irregularities.

LSAC takes significant steps that are intended to provide you a fair, standardized Test process. However, in some cases, circumstances may prevent this process from occurring as designed. Such circumstances may include, but shall not be limited to, the occurrence of the following:
- Deviations from standard testing procedures such as events that cause the Test to be canceled or interrupted, or a mistiming on any part of the Test;
- Errors, delays, or other nonstandard circumstances in (a) processing Test registrations, (b) administering the Test, (c) preparing, handling, shipping, processing, or scoring the Test, or (d) reporting Test scores;
- Circumstances that raise concerns about the possibility that one or more Prohibited Behaviors occurred during the Test and may have affected a group of Candidates (e.g., Candidates who took the Test in the same room or center where one or more Prohibited Behaviors occurred). Such circumstances include, but are not limited to, evidence of advance access to Test content or inappropriate conduct during any Test administration; or
- Any other events that disrupt or compromise any part of the Test process (e.g., registration, Test distribution, testing, Test scoring, and Test score reporting).
In the unlikely event any such circumstance occurs, LSAC will review the situation and determine whether it needs to take any action, including, but not limited to, not scoring the Test or canceling the Test scores for that administration of the Test. LSAC may review any Test administration for such circumstances as long as the Test scores are reportable to law schools and for at least a period of five (5) years following the date of the Test administration. If LSAC determines that it needs to take action, LSAC will, at its sole discretion: (a) correct the error (if an error occurred and LSAC believes correction is feasible); (b) not score the Test or cancel the Test score and offer each affected Candidate the option to retake the Test at no additional fee; or (c) not score the Test or cancel the Test score and offer a refund to each affected Candidate.

The remedies listed in this Section 32 are the exclusive remedies available to Candidates for the circumstances described in this Section 32.

Decisions made by LSAC pursuant to this Section 32 are final and are not subject to any appeal. If LSAC offers a re-Test and you select that option, you must take the re-Test in its entirety, and not in part, to produce a valid Test score.
Test Security Policies; Investigations.

As part of its efforts to protect the fairness of the Test and the integrity of Test scores, LSAC may conduct investigations into the security of its Test materials and the Test process (collectively, “Test Security Investigations”). You agree to cooperate with any Test Security Investigation. LSAC reserves the right to withhold and not report any Test score pending the outcome of any Test Security Investigation related to such Test score. In certain instances, Test Security Investigations may produce evidence that calls into question the validity of specific Test scores and may cause LSAC to initiate an irregularity action against you. In other instances, Test Security Investigations may produce evidence that calls into question the validity of a group of scores (e.g., all scores achieved by a group of Candidates from a Test center on a specific Test date), and may result in LSAC taking action with respect to such group of Candidates. By entering into this Agreement, you understand and agree that LSAC may investigate, place a hold on, and/or cancel your Test score at any time after you take the Test, including after your Test score has been initially deemed valid and reported to the applicable law schools to which you are applying or have applied. You also understand and agree that LSAC may seek information from third parties related to a Test Security Investigation. You also understand and agree that LSAC may release confidential information regarding any pending Test Security Investigation to recipients of your Test score. If your Test score is canceled at any time as the result of a Test Security Investigation, LSAC may notify third-party score recipients of the score cancellation. Test Security Investigations may also lead to a referral to LSAC’s Subcommittee on Misconduct and Irregularities in the Admission Process.
Consequences of Violating Test Security Policies.

Any violation of any of the terms and conditions related to the security of the Test materials and/or the integrity of the Test process may result in cancellation and/or rescission of the Candidate’s registration, denial of entry to or immediate dismissal from the Test, cancellation of the Candidate’s Test scores (including reporting such score cancellation to all score recipients), and/or a prohibition imposed on the Candidate from taking the Test in the future. The duration of the prohibition imposed on any Candidate from taking the Test in the future may vary depending on the circumstances and severity of the violation of the Test security policies, as determined by LSAC at LSAC’s sole discretion.

In addition to taking action regarding the Candidate’s Test score, LSAC may, at its sole discretion, decide as part of a Test Security Investigation that additional steps are appropriate. In instances where the Prohibited Behavior is or might be ongoing or rises to the level of a criminal act (e.g., coordinated group efforts to steal and disseminate LSAC’s secure Test content; activities involving someone else taking the Test for another person or altering Test responses; theft; disclosure of, or access to, Test content or responses to secure Test questions; or other serious or potentially ongoing misconduct), LSAC may take additional steps including, but not limited to, the following actions:
1. Disclosure of Investigative Information: LSAC reserves the right to disclose details of a Test Security Investigation to anyone who may be able to assist LSAC in the Test Security Investigation or who may have an interest in their own independent investigation. This includes, but is not limited to, law enforcement, law schools, score recipients, and any third party assisting LSAC in the investigation. These disclosure rights aid in protecting the integrity and fairness of the Test process and benefit Candidates and Test score recipients who properly obtain their Test scores. By entering into this Agreement, you consent to these disclosures and you release LSAC from any and all liability it may have or incur for exercising its right to make such disclosures. LSAC may disclose the evidence on which any finding is based (including, but not limited to, any audio and/or video recordings of the Test) to any law school that receives your Test scores.
2. Disclosure of Misconduct Finding: If you are found by LSAC to have engaged in any act that is prohibited under this Agreement that affects, impacts, or otherwise impairs the validity of your score(s) on the Test or the score(s) of any other Candidate(s) taking the Test, LSAC may disclose such conduct to any law school that receives your Test score(s) and to any third party with a legitimate reason for knowing that information.
Intended Use Policy.

In accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Certifying Statement, each Candidate for the Test is permitted to take the Test solely for the purpose of being considered for admission to law school (the “Intended Purpose”). Each Candidate certifies that the Candidate will neither assist nor receive assistance from any other person or entity during the Test. Each Candidate agrees not to discuss, share, disclose, copy, or otherwise misappropriate the Test or any intellectual property related to the Test, whether orally, in writing, on the Internet, or via any other means or media, and agrees not to assist any person or entity in doing so.

If the Candidate is not taking the Test for the Intended Purpose, the Candidate is not permitted to register for and/or take the Test. If LSAC, at its sole and reasonable discretion, determines that the Candidate is not taking the Test for the Intended Purpose, LSAC can prohibit the Candidate from registering for the Test, cancel or rescind the Candidate’s registration for the Test, cancel the Candidate’s Test score, and/or subject the Candidate to a Test Security Investigation. At LSAC’s sole discretion, LSAC may determine that, as part of a Test Security Investigation, additional steps identified in Sections 33 and 34 of this Agreement will be imposed on the Candidate.

LSAC may prohibit any Candidate from taking the Test, even if the Candidate has registered for such Test, if LSAC has reason to believe that the Candidate:
1. Has engaged in any Prohibited Behavior or otherwise violated the terms and conditions of this Agreement in connection with a prior or future administration of the Test;
2. Intends to engage in any Prohibited Behavior or otherwise violate the terms and conditions of this Agreement in the future;
3. Has provided false or misleading information to LSAC or any third party related to the taking of the Test;
4. Is an LSAC employee or family member of an LSAC employee, or working for or on behalf of LSAC as a third-party vendor, or as or on behalf of any Test-preparation provider(s);
5. Is using any LSAC employee, individual engaged by LSAC, or any Test-preparation service provider as a reader or scribe as part of an approved Test accommodation; or
6. Is engaging or has otherwise engaged in any behavior that may threaten or has threatened the integrity of the Test.
LSAC reviews each Test registration and each Test administration to ensure that each Candidate is taking the Test at such Test administration for the Intended Purpose. If LSAC determines that the Candidate is not taking the Test for the Intended Purpose, LSAC will send to the Candidate a written communication indicating that the Candidate is suspected of violating LSAC’s Intended Use Policy along with the consequences for the Candidate’s violation of the Intended Use Policy. The Candidate shall have five (5) business days from the date that LSAC sends written notice of the violation of the Intended Use Policy to the Candidate to provide a detailed explanation for the Candidate’s conduct. Such explanation must include an explanation as to why the Candidate’s conduct is not a violation of LSAC’s Intended Use Policy. Following LSAC’s receipt of the Candidate’s explanation of the Candidate’s conduct, LSAC will submit the Candidate’s explanation to LSAC’s Test Security Committee for review. Within five (5) business days of LSAC’s receipt of the Candidate’s explanation, the LSAC Test Security Committee will issue its finding as to whether the Candidate’s conduct resulted in a violation of LSAC’s Intended Use Policy. Any and all determinations issued by LSAC’s Test Security Committee pursuant to this Section 35 shall be final and shall not be subject to any further appeal by the Candidate. If the Candidate does not submit a detailed explanation of the Candidate’s conduct that includes an explanation as to why the Candidate’s conduct should not be deemed a violation of LSAC’s Intended Use Policy within five (5) business days of the date that LSAC sends notice of the violation of the Intended Use Policy to the Candidate, then the Candidate’s violation of LSAC’s Intended Use Policy shall be deemed final and unappealable.

Any violation of LSAC’s Intended Use Policy may result in cancellation or rescission of the Candidate’s registration and a refund of any registration fees paid by the Candidate for the canceled Test. In addition to cancellation and/or rescission of the Candidate’s registration, LSAC reserves the right to investigate and cancel the Test scores of any Candidate suspected of attempting to steal or share any Test content or violating any of the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.
Delivery of the Candidate’s Test Scores.

You will receive an email notification indicating that you may view your Test score in your online LSAC account. Your Test score and percentile will also be available in your online LSAC account. Posting of your Test score and percentile may be delayed due to various circumstances, including file holds, late receipt of Test materials, or other issues.

If you take a nondisclosed Test, you will receive only your Test score following the Test. You will not receive Test disclosure information, such as a copy of the Test questions, a list of the correct Test responses, a copy of your Test answer sheet, or the score conversion table for your Test. For further clarification, please visit Disclosed and Nondisclosed LSATs.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND DAMAGES.

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, LSAC’S TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU, OR ANYONE CLAIMING BY OR THROUGH YOU OR ON YOUR BEHALF, FOR ANY CLAIMS, LOSSES, COSTS, OR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF, RESULTING FROM, OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THE TEST, FROM ANY CAUSE, SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TEST REGISTRATION FEES YOU PAID TO LSAC, OR $222, WHICHEVER AMOUNT SHALL BE GREATER. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL LSAC BE LIABLE TO YOU, OR ANYONE CLAIMING BY OR THROUGH YOU OR ON YOUR BEHALF, FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECULATIVE, INCIDENTAL (INCLUDING ANY DAMAGES INCURRED DUE TO A LOSS OF OPPORTUNITY, INCOME, OR PROFITS; LOSS OF INFORMATION; BUSINESS INTERRUPTION; TRAVEL AND LODGING EXPENSES; TEST-PREPARATION COURSE FEES; OR THE LIKE, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR HOW THESE ARE CLASSIFIED AS DAMAGES), EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ATTORNEYS’ FEES, EXPENSES, EXPERT WITNESS FEES, OR COSTS, WHETHER ARISING OUT OF BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, PRODUCT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGE WAS FORESEEABLE OR YOU HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGE.
LSAC’s Intellectual Property Rights.

All Tests, Test-related documents and materials, and Test-preparation materials are copyrighted works owned by LSAC and protected by the laws of the United States of America and other countries. Secure Tests and Test questions (e.g., Tests and Test questions that are not made available by LSAC to the general public) may not be copied, shared, discussed, or disclosed at any time or in any manner whatsoever. Test-related materials that LSAC has made available to the general public, such as materials designated by LSAC as practice or sample Tests, may not be copied, duplicated, or used in any other works, in whole or in part, without the prior written approval of LSAC. If you are approved to take the Test in paper format as a Test accommodation, you must return any Test materials that are provided to you by LSAC within forty-eight (48) hours of the date of your Test administration. If you fail to return any such Test materials within this 48-hour time period, LSAC reserves the right: (a) not to report your Test score for that Test administration; (b) to rescind any future Test registrations; (c) to refer the matter for a Test Security Investigation and/or LSAC’s Subcommittee on Misconduct and Irregularities in the Admission Process; and (d) to engage the appropriate law enforcement agencies to secure the return of LSAC’s intellectual property and physical property. Under no circumstances will you be entitled to any refund of the Test registration fees paid to LSAC if you fail to comply with the terms and conditions of this Section 38.
1. Liquidated Damages for Violation of LSAC’s Intellectual Property Rights: ANY COPYING, SHARING, MISAPPROPRIATION, DISCUSSING, OR DISCLOSING OF LSAC’S TEST, TEST QUESTIONS, OR TEST-RELATED DOCUMENTS AND MATERIALS IS A DIRECT VIOLATION OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT. BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU HEREBY AGREE THAT IN THE EVENT OF ANY SUCH VIOLATION ON YOUR PART, YOU WILL BE LIABLE TO LSAC FOR LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IN THE AMOUNT OF FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($500,000). YOU EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT THE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES PAYABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT DO NOT CONSTITUTE A PENALTY AND YOU AGREE THAT THE AMOUNT OF SUCH LIQUIDATED DAMAGES IS REASONABLE IN LIGHT OF THE ANTICIPATED HARM CAUSED BY THE BREACH RELATED THERETO AND THE DIFFICULTIES OF PROOF OF LOSS AND INCONVENIENCE OR NON-FEASIBILITY OF OBTAINING ANY ADEQUATE REMEDY. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, IN ADDITION TO ANY LIQUIDATED DAMAGES AWARDED TO LSAC UNDER THIS PROVISION, LSAC MAY PURSUE INJUNCTIVE RELIEF IN A COURT OF LAW FOR ANY SUCH VIOLATION OF ITS INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS AND REFER SUCH VIOLATION TO LAW ENFORCEMENT AUTHORITIES AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 38(B) OF THIS AGREEMENT.
2. Additional Consequences for Violation of LSAC’s Intellectual Property Rights: LSAC may pursue all available civil and criminal remedies if its intellectual property rights are violated, including, but not limited to, seeking damages and injunctive relief in a court of law and referring such violations to law enforcement authorities for criminal prosecution. LSAC reserves the right to pursue all suitable courses of action to prevent fraudulent or unauthorized use, disclosure, copying, misappropriation, or sharing of its property and to prevent the compromise of secure Test materials.
3. LSAC Ownership of Test Materials: LSAC retains complete ownership rights to the Test and all Test materials, including Test answers. LSAC owns all answers and answer documents you submit, including all written responses, as well as all Test score-related data maintained by LSAC. The Test score and percentile that LSAC provides you may not be altered, and, if LSAC cancels your Test score, you may not provide such Test score to any third party.
LSAC Policies.

All LSAC policies referenced in this Agreement, and other policies and rules applicable to the registration for and administration of the Test, are available for your review at LSAC Policies. These LSAC policies, including, but not limited to, the LSAC Privacy Policy, are incorporated by reference into and made a part of this Agreement. LSAC’s policies are periodically updated and subject to change at any time, without notice. You have an obligation to read the policies before you take the Test. If you do not agree with the applicable policies that are in effect on the date of the Test, you must notify LSAC, prior to the Test, of your intent to cancel your registration pursuant to this provision. At its sole discretion, LSAC may elect to provide a refund in the event of such Test cancellation. Any questions should be directed to LSAC’s Customer Relationships via email at LSACinfo@LSAC.org or via phone at 1.800.336.3982 in advance of the applicable Test date. Notification of your intent to cancel your registration pursuant to this provision should likewise be directed to LSAC’s Customer Relationships.
Ongoing Duty.

You certify that all the information contained in this Agreement, as well as information and materials submitted to LSAC for your LSAC file (including your self-managed online LSAC account) and any information you submit to any third party for purposes of taking the Test, are complete and accurate. You understand that you are responsible for the completeness and accuracy of all the biographical information contained in your online LSAC account. You certify that you have read the most current policies on the LSAC website and you agree to be bound by such policies. Your online LSAC account provides a great deal of information about your activity with LSAC and with the law schools to which you apply. It is your responsibility to manage your account actively to ensure that all relevant information is received, that all information is current and correct, and that all deadlines are met by you. You represent and warrant that all information provided by you to register for your online LSAC account is complete, accurate, and current.

If you need to make any changes to your biographical information, including your legal first name, legal last name, or date of birth, you must submit such changes through your online LSAC account. For verification purposes, all requests for changes to your date of birth must also include supporting documentation. Requests for changes received without the required supporting documentation will not be processed. Your failure to provide accurate and consistent information could prevent you from taking the Test or could result in errors, processing delays, file reviews, and possible referral for an LSAC investigation that may lead to a finding of misconduct or irregularity. Should LSAC become aware of a discrepancy in your biographical data, you will be notified in writing and asked to provide the correct data in writing. In some instances, a reporting hold may be placed on your file until the matter is resolved. This hold will prevent your Test score from being released and will prevent CAS Reports from being sent to the law schools to which you apply.
Governing Law.

This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, USA, without giving effect to choice of law principles, and shall not be governed by the United Nations Convention for International Sales of Goods, the application of which is expressly excluded.
Severability.

If any provision or part of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will nevertheless continue in full force without being impaired or invalidated in any way; and, to the greatest extent possible, the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision shall be modified so that it is valid, legal, enforceable and, to the fullest extent possible, reflects the intention of the parties.
No Third-Party Beneficiary.

This Agreement does not create a third-party beneficiary relationship between LSAC and any individual or entity other than you.
No Agency.

LSAC collects, stores, and distributes information about you and transmits it to law schools in accordance with LSAC’s policies. LSAC also provides you with information about law schools. LSAC’s role in the collection, storage, and transmission of information does not mean that LSAC is your agent or an agent of any law school. LSAC has no authority to alter or waive any requirement of any law school. Any disputes between you and a law school must be resolved directly between you and the applicable law school.
