Can you get into Arizona State University with a 165 LSAT?

Arizona State University's Fall 2025 entering class had a median LSAT of 165 and a median GPA of 3.91. A 165 is right at that median. Here is an honest read of what that means. No fake percentages: nobody can put a real number on one applicant's odds.

Try it yourself: the what-if chances tool takes your numbers, and the list builder turns them into a school list.

What a 165 means here

A 165 sits right around this school's median of 165. That makes Arizona State University a target: about half of last year's class scored near or below you. From here, the rest of the file decides. A GPA at or above the 3.91 median strengthens your position; a GPA below it puts more pressure on essays, recommendations, and experience.

The honest caveats

Medians describe last year's class, not a cutoff and not your odds. Admissions offices read GPA, essays, recommendations, and background alongside the score. A 165 with a standout file beats a higher score with a thin one more often than applicants expect. Apply to a balanced list: reaches like this one if it applies, targets around your score, and safeties a few points below. Do not skip the safeties.

Next steps

Medians from ABA Standard 509 disclosures via ILRG, Fall 2025 entering class. Reach/target/safety framing is a rough rule of thumb, not a prediction or guarantee.
