The LMU Law Review edits and publishes articles written by scholars, practitioners and students. Selection to the Law Review occurs via a write-on competition immediately following the end of the first year (for full-time students) or second year (for part-time students). After serving for at least one semester as a member of the Law Review, each student must undertake a writing project under the supervision of the Law Review's faculty advisor. The student must complete a request form consistent with the Law Review Writing Project Guidelines. The student's request must demonstrate that the proposal could satisfy the upper-level writing requirement. However, a student may propose a Law Review Writing Project while using a different course to fulfill the upper-level writing requirement. If the student earns a passing grade on a Law Review Writing Project lower than a "B" or otherwise fails to meet the criteria of the Upper Level Writing requirement, the student will receive credit for this course but may not use the Law Review Writing Project to satisfy the Upper-Level Writing requirement. The request form must be completed prior to the following deadlines based on the semester in which the student wishes to complete the writing project: fall semester, July 1; spring semester, November 1; summer semester, March 15. To receive credit for this course, the student must, in addition to completing the Law Review Writing Project, satisfactorily complete two academic years on the Law Review, to be certified by the Law Review faculty advisor.
