After you have graduated, or when you know that you are going to be graduating soon, you can begin to apply for the Arkansas bar exam. The first thing that you need to do when you are ready to do this is to request an application from the Arkansas State Board of Law Examiners. You can do this online, at their website. You will need to download and print the bar exam application in order to begin to apply.
You'll then want to look at the requirements listed on the Arkansas State Board of Bar Examiners website, to be sure that you are actually qualified for the bar exam. Be sure that you have done all that is necessary to ensure you have a place on the exam.
Be sure that you take the time needed to complete all of the parts of the application as accurately and completely as possible. Be sure that you include the criminal history record release, as well as the law school certification form, and the character questionnaire—along with the regular application. Once you have finished all of the parts, you will want to be sure that you double check them to ensure that you have filled out everything correctly and completely.
Then, get your application for the Arkansas bar exam notarized. You’ll want to do this in a timely manner to make sure that your application is filled out and completed on time as well.
You might be able to take the essay portion of the bar exam on your own laptop computer, if you use a standard word processing system. If you want to do this, be sure that you fill out the appropriate form and that the form is attached to your application.
The next step for you is to put your application together in a packet with the main application, and with all of the other pieces of the application materials that are needed. You will want to include the fee, the fingerprint cards, and the letters of recommendation, as well as the certifications of good standing, if you need to.
Lastly, be sure that you mail your application well within the set time period, so that you make the application deadline for applying. If you are able to do all of these things, you’ll find that you have what it takes to apply for the Arkansas bar exam.
