The American Bar Association is creating a way for law schools to request exemptions from the organization’s standardized testing requirement.

The law school accreditor’s Council on Legal Education and Bar Admissions Division voted to create a “variance” that would allow individual law schools to apply for permission to bypass current LSAT or GRE admissions requirements. If the application is accepted, this waiver will be valid for three to five years before the school must re-apply.

This is the latest change resulting from years of fierce debate within the ABA over whether the ABA should allow law schools to make test scores optional for applicants. Accreditor in 2022 make a suggestion To waive the LSAT requirement, however defeated in one vote by the ABA governing body.

The Law School Admissions Council, which developed the LSAT, said in a statement to Reuters that it supported the move as a way to allow schools to “experiment responsibly to expand access.”
