Law school allows students to apply from smart phones
Atlanta's John Marshall Law School says it is the first law school in the nation to allow students to submit applications through their smart phones or other mobile devices.
As of Monday, students could apply by typing "m.johnmarshall.edu" into their smart phones or tablet browsers, the school said. Students still must mail in their transcripts, letters of recommendation and personal statement. But Alan Boyer, the school's associate dean of recruitment, said the new process "really is just about responding to the way students live their lives."
