Dear prospective student,

As we begin the holiday break, we wanted to send a brief reminder about our upcoming Early Decision application deadline this Sunday, December 1.  While we will continue to accept regular decision applications throughout the year, the Early Decision process affords candidates a special opportunity to confirm their commitment to attending Elon Law and receive an admissions decision by the start of the year.  In addition, those accepted through the Early Decision process will receive a scholarship decision in January, benefiting from being considered early in the awards cycle when scholarship funds are most available.  The Early Decision process is not for everyone, but it is perfect for applicants who are certain that Elon Law is their first-choice institution.
