About NNLSO
The National Network of Law School Officers (NNLSO) is a nonprofit, professional organization designed for the educational and professional development of all law school officers. Primarily, NNLSO addresses the concerns and issues of registrars and admissions officers. Although NNLSO is the only professional organization for law school registrars, it encourages and welcomes all department officials with the goal to facilitate and promote intra-departmental relations within a law school community.
In 1978, at the annual conference of the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers (AACRAO), a group of law school registrars and admissions officers shared a full exchange of information and formed the idea that they should meet again, and regularly, as a group. When AACRAO met in New Orleans in 1980, a steering committee was formed to guide the group into a full organization, which became the National Network of Law School Registrars and Admissions Officers.
Now renamed the National Network of Law School Officers, NNLSO boasts a membership approaching 600, with over 130 ABA-accredited law schools participating. NNLSO publishes a bi-annual journal, to which deans, admissions officers, registrars, financial aid officers, and student services leaders frequently contribute.
