Run a Pre-forum Query

Each year, LSAC Law School Forums serve as invaluable opportunities for candidates to learn about law school and connect with law school representatives. To leverage LSAC forums as part of your overall recruiting strategy, you can run a pre-forum query to see who has registered to attend. There are two main parts to run a pre-forum query.

Please note: Use the LSAC created Event for LSAC Forums. When your school registers for a forum, the event is created for you in Dynamics. Forum queries will add Forum registrants automatically to these auto-created events.

Part 1: Select the forum pool

  1. Open a browser and log on to Unite.

  2. On the main menu, click UTILITIES.

  3. Click the CRS tab.
