What materials need to be submitted as part of the application?

Applicants need to have all previous undergraduate and graduate institutions where they've been enrolled send official transcripts. They also need to take the GRE, but they do not need to take the LSAT. If they have taken the LSAT that can be assessed as well, but it is not required. They need three letters of recommendations. The application also consists of two short essays. One is called the “statement of purpose” in which applicants communicate their goals for graduate study and beyond, in addition to why they want to be at JSP and what they hope to get out of the Ph.D. program. The second essay is the “personal statement,” which is a short biographical essay about the applicant’s experiences and how these have led them to apply and pursue a doctoral degree with JSP. Finally, applicants may also submit samples of their written work from coursework or publications that they have. A sample of written academic work is necessary, but these don’t necessarily need to be publications. More information can be found here
