LSAC Press Release, Acquisition of Law School Transparency Strengthens LSAC LawHub Offerings:
The Law School Admission Council announced today the expansion of its LawHub offerings through the acquisition of Law School Transparency, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing innovative tools that help aspiring law school students make informed decisions about their legal education future. As part of this expansion, Law School Transparency’s cofounder and executive director Kyle McEntee has joined LSAC’s growing LawHub team as senior director for prelaw solutions.
“LSAC LawHub is designed to provide a comprehensive set of solutions to guide individuals in their unique legal education journeys, from prelaw through practice,” said Annmarie Levins, LSAC’s executive vice president and chief strategy officer. “The integration of Law School Transparency’s innovative, data-driven tools with LSAC LawHub’s ever-expanding services is a major step forward for students, advisors, and the broader community.”
Founded in 2009 by McEntee and Patrick Lynch, Law School Transparency has an impressive track record of advocating for policies that ensure more robust and accurate information. LST has helped students consider their legal education options and offered many innovative tools and services that support students starting their learning journey.
“With the acquisition of Law School Transparency, LSAC is making a major statement about the importance of empowering students,” said McEntee. “Making informed choices about whether and where to attend law school is crucial given the substantial investment of time and money required to become a lawyer. I am committed to the LSAC LawHub vision and excited to help people learn about the legal profession and improve their outcomes.”
As the result of the acquisition, Levins and McEntee expect to offer some of Law School Transparency’s products through LawHub in the months ahead, including the I Am The Law podcast series about law jobs.
Initially launched in March 2020, LawHub is evolving to become a destination for individuals at every stage of their legal career.

“I’m excited to announce that LST is joining the Law School Admission Council to work together to empower students. LST will continue to help prelaw students make strategic choices about where to apply and attend law school, and we will work with LSAC to help advance every aspect of legal education.” — Kyle McEntee, co-founder, Law School Transparency
