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 | 158 | 161 | 163 | 3.7 | 3.8 | 3.9 |

90.5% of the 2024 class landed a full-time, long-term job within 10 months, 13.8% went to biglaw, and with a 93.6% bar pass rate, the debt math at $166,500 for 3 years holds up better than the placement number alone suggests.
Your odds
At a 161 LSAT, you're at Belmont's median, with the middle 50% running from 158 to 163. A 37.6% acceptance rate means the full file matters as much as the number. Run your own numbers through the calculator before you spend a filing fee guessing.

What it costs
| Sticker tuition (2025) | $55,500/yr |
| 3-year sticker total | $166,500 |
| Pays full sticker | 38.1% |
| Gets some grant | 61.9% |
61.9% of the class gets some grant, but 38.1% pay full sticker, a high full-pay share, so a score above the 163 75th percentile is where you'll need to sit to push that number down.
