Do you have questions about the bar application process? We’ve got you covered, with a Virtual Bar Application Q&A on April 16 to answer any questions that may arise as you move through your application. 

To get the most out of the Q&A session, please start the application online and review all the questions before coming to the Q&A session. Here a some things to keep in mind:

• For the MA Bar application (and most others), as you move through the application, you answer the current question. If you would like to move forward, you can always answer with a placeholder and make a note to yourself to come back. 

• For most bar applications, including the MA bar, you will be able to save your progress and come back to the application at a later time. If you are unsure whether it will save you can always contact your board of bar examiners. You can use this link to access a nationwide directory.

• For the MA bar, you can review a sample petition to see all of the questions. You can find a sample petition with questions on the MA Bar Exam FAQ page. It's linked in the first question under "Before the Exam."
