Preparing the Application Site

In the MLaw Journals Shared Google Drive there is a folder for Write On. (If you are in the MLawJournals MCommunity group, you should have access to the shared drive. Email Jessica if not.)

In this folder is the most up to date version of instructions for how to prepare your Journal's 'course' and 'exams' within the NEW (as of 2025) Application Site. 

After the Writing Competition has ended

When you've graded all the applications and are ready to send offers, send Jessica Pasquale a list of the Numbers you want to accept, wait list, and reject.

She will send you back an alphabetized list of names for the people you accept so you can contact them personally if you want. She can also send the acceptance letter as an attachment in an email to each person, if you would rather not do that yourself. There is a google form applicants will receive where they can indicate their decision to accept or decline a position.

Jessica can also send the wait list emails, along with a link to a separate google form requesting applicants if they wish to remain on the wait list. Notify Jessica if you plan to send these yourself.

Jessica can also send the rejection emails to people who were not accepted. Notify Jessica if you plan to send these yourself.
