Choosing a law school is one of the hardest parts of the admissions process, not because you do not have options, but because you finally do. In this episode, Jake Baska breaks down what it actually means to deposit, how that differs from enrolling, when it makes sense to ask for a deposit deadline extension, and how to think through waitlists, pending decisions, scholarship timing, and even the possibility of retesting or reapplying.

Jake also walks through the bigger-picture questions that should shape your final choice: rank, cost, scholarship money, job outcomes, geography, student culture, and whether a school genuinely feels like the right fit for your next three years and beyond. If you are staring at multiple offers, waiting on one last decision, or wondering whether it is okay to double deposit, this episode gives you a practical framework for making the call with confidence.
