Character and Fitness Applications

Law students in Missouri are strongly encouraged to file an Application for Character and Fitness Report as soon as they begin law school. One of the chief reasons to file early is that the earlier a student files, the lower the application fee. The first deadline for early registration for first year law students in Missouri is
October 1, 2008. Please contact the Career Services Office with questions.
