“In order to be accepted to a law school You need to take the LSAT, but in order to take it you must provide a social security number, being illegal, i don’t have one.
I’m a junior high school student, you need to be finished college to take it (Please don’t say that by that time there will be immigration reform) and have a BS.
So I’m wondering, how can a finished illegal college student take the LSAT? “
Answer......
“That’s inaccurate. You DO NOT need a social security number to take the LSAT. Register w/ LSAC online and don’t provide a number. You can also email LSAC and ask them for a 999 number which is a SS replacement for the LSAT and law school applications. They’ll give you one. DO NOT claim that you are a US citizen or resident on your applications or you’ll get dinged when the bar reviews your application. I’m in law school on full scholarship. Apply to private schools.
I took the LSAT w/o a social and showed my passport for ID. No issues.”

“NOTE: International Students - once you have a SS Number, you MUST change your International student ID number (999-XX-XXXX) to your new SS# with the Registrar’s Office. Once you have a SS number, do NOT use your 999 number!”
Lets repeat that....
