Eligibility Requirements to Write On to Law Review

1. All competitors must have a cumulative grade point average of 3.200 or higher at the completion of the Spring Semester.
2. The write-on competition takes place one time a year, usually at the end of the spring semester. All competitors have only one opportunity during their tenure at the University of Baltimore to write onto Law Review.
3. Competitors must have four academic semesters remaining before graduation to be eligible for admittance onto Law Review. An academic semester is a fall or a spring semester. A summer semester does not count towards the four academic semesters that a student must have remaining at the time of acceptance.

The Write-on Competition has three areas of evaluation:

1. Cumulative grade point average is worth 25%
2. Editing exercise is worth 10%
3. Case note is worth 65%
