The Court’s order is posted below. The measures include:  \n1. Granting a one-time “Emergency Diploma Privilege” to persons who timely submitted complete applications for the July 2020 Oregon bar examination and who either:  \n(a) graduated in 2020 from one of the three Oregon law schools; or  \n(b) graduated in 2020 from any other law school accredited by the American Bar Association that had a minimum of 86 percent of graduates pass a 2019 bar exam on their first attempt.  \nA “timely submitted complete application” includes applications received after Oregon hit seating capacity on May 15, so long as the application was postmarked on or before May 30, 2020 and deemed complete by the Bar upon receipt. The Qualified Law Schools are listed below. *  \nAll other admission requirements continue to apply, including obtaining a passing score on the MPRE and establishing that the applicant has the requisite character and fitness to practice law.  \n2. Reducing Oregon's passing score for the July 2020 UBE bar exam from 274 to 266.  \n3. Authorizing an online-only Oregon bar exam to be conducted in October for a limited subset of applicants, outlined in the Court’s order. A person who passes the October exam would qualify for admission in Oregon but would not qualify for UBE admission to other jurisdictions.  \nAny July 2020 Oregon Bar Examination applicant wishing to elect Diploma Privilege instead or opt into the October 2020 Oregon Bar Examination must do so on or before midnight, Pacific Time, July 6, 2020, by submitting the relevant form below. Elections are final when submitted. No applicant will be eligible for Diploma Privilege after July 6, 2020.  \n2020 Admissions FAQs  \nJULY 2020 BAR EXAM APPLICANTS:  \nMaximum Seating Capacity Reached  \nOn May 11, 2020, the Oregon State Board of Bar Examiners (BBX) announced that it will continue with its plans for hosting a July Bar exam, but due to gathering restriction recommendations related to COVID-19, the Chair of the BBX set a maximum seating capacity for the exam. This capacity was achieved on May 15, 2020, and all applications received in the Admissions Department by that date have been reserved a seat and those applicants have been notified. Applicants who have not been reserved a seat have also been notified.  \nThe BBX plans to host the July exam at four separate sites, testing approximately 100 to 150 applicants at each site. The sites have five to ten independent exam rooms, and each exam room of ten or more applicants has been assigned a staging area away from the building that houses the exam room. Pursuant to CJO 20-09, the Chair of the BBX has amended the bar exam application to require all applicants, for whom a seat is reserved, to sign a Code of Conduct Declaration and complete some additional steps remotely as part of an applicant’s registration process. The amended application documents were sent by email to every applicant with a reserved seat on June 5, 2020. The Declaration and steps must be completed no later than Friday, June  \n19, 2020. If an applicant who has a reserved seat does not complete the additional required steps by June 19, 2020, regardless of the reason for missing this deadline, the applicant will lose the seat and be given a credit toward one of the next two bar exams offered by the Oregon State Bar.  \nIf your application was received by the Admissions Department on or before May 15, 2020, and you have not received the June 5, 2020 email, please check your junk email folder for the relevant communication.
