ABA 509 DATA, 2025
Puerto Rico Law School Admissions: LSAT, GPA, Cost, and Jobs (2025)
Compared to most schools on this list, Puerto Rico asks for a much higher GPA relative to its LSAT: a 3.8 median GPA against a 152 median LSAT. The acceptance rate is 39.7%, and only 70.8% of 2024 grads had a full-time, long-term job 10 months out, the number that matters more than the admit rate.
What it takes to get in
These are the school's own reported 25th, 50th, and 75th percentile LSAT and GPA numbers from its ABA Standard 509 filing, the same disclosure every accredited law school has to file each year. The 50th percentile is the median: half the admitted class scored above it, half below.
| Year | LSAT 25th | LSAT 50th | LSAT 75th | GPA 25th | GPA 50th | GPA 75th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 146 | 152 | 156 | 3.6 | 3.8 | 3.9 |
| 2019 | 142 | 145 | 149 | 3.3 | 3.6 | 3.8 |
| 2015 | 141 | 144 | 149 | 3.2 | 3.5 | 3.8 |
The median LSAT is up 7 points since 2019 and the median GPA moved +0.2. The bar moved here.
Your odds
At 152 on the LSAT and a 3.8 GPA, you're at Puerto Rico's median, with a quarter of admits scoring 156 or higher. Fall below 146 and you're in the bottom quarter, where a 39.7% acceptance rate stops being a given. Run your own numbers through the calculator before you spend a filing fee guessing.

What you get out (Class of 2024)
