COVID-19 Safety Measures for In-Person Forums

Last updated August 22, 2022

With your health and safety being of the utmost importance, the LSAC Law School Forums have been designed with COVID-19 safety protocols in mind. At the present time, LSAC plans to implement the safety guidelines listed below at the 2022-23 LSAC Law School Forums.

However, please note that LSAC is continually reviewing health and safety guidelines as they relate to public health recommendations. These protocols will evolve along with current conditions and guidance from the CDC and other state and local health agencies. Please check this page regularly for updates.

In addition, please be aware that LSAC may cancel any/all in-person LSAC Law School Forums if LSAC determines that cancellation is warranted due to any safety concerns.

At this time, LSAC will not be verifying vaccination status in advance of the event; however, LSAC will require everyone that attends an in-person forum to wear a mask that covers their entire nose and mouth for the entirety of their time inside the venue hosting the event. LSAC will comply with all applicable laws in the jurisdiction, so please note that LSAC may be required to change its policy to adhere to and comply with applicable law.

Please note: By attending an LSAC Law School Forum, you agree to abide by all applicable health and safety-related protocols. People who don’t comply with the guidelines will be asked to leave.

Entry Times

In order to reduce the number of people in close proximity, LSAC is limiting the number of people that can be in the forum hall at any given time. To accomplish this, in-person forum attendees will be asked to choose from one of two time slot options during the registration process. You’ll be able to visit with law school representatives during the time frame you select. These varied entry times will provide for a smooth and safe experience for attendees as we strive to comply with social distancing protocols in the forum’s physical space.

Entry-time options are 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. for forums that take place on Saturdays, and NOON to 3 p.m. and 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. for forums that take place on weekdays. Please note that all times listed are for the particular time zone in which each forum will be taking place.

You may arrive at the forum venue 90 minutes prior to the start of your time slot, but you may not visit with law schools until your assigned entry time begins. An educational workshop will be available one hour prior to each entry start time. Your opportunity to visit with law schools will conclude at the end of your time slot.

Social Distancing

Attendees are encouraged to maintain safe distances from law school representatives and one another. LSAC will facilitate social distancing by using modified room layouts, crowd flow management, and physical barriers where appropriate. Presenters will sit at tables that are six feet long, helping to enforce distancing. Floors in front of exhibit tables will be marked with stickers six feet apart, also enforcing social distancing. Additionally, safety reminders, including signage and floor decals, will be posted to reinforce social distancing. The number of people in the exhibit halls will always be far below the room’s capacity.

Face Masks

Everyone attending an in-person forum must wear, for the entirety of their time inside the venue, a face mask that covers the nose and mouth. Although we will have disposable masks on site, we encourage attendees to be prepared.
