How do I apply?

If you have a disability and want to request an accommodation, complete the BAR/BRI Patent Bar Review "Request for ADA Accommodation" form and return it along with documentation to:

ADA Director
BAR/BRI Patent Bar Review
1150 18th ST, NW
Washington, DC 20036
Fax: (202) 835-0948

When should I apply?

Even simple requests, such as special seating or extra time on practice tests, may take time to arrange. To avoid any delay in getting accommodations, please make your request early, ideally 90 days before the course begins.

What accommodations will I need?

To help you determine what accommodations you will need, we recommend that you contact your local BAR/BRI Patent Bar Review administrator to learn about the format of the program and its materials. Ask:

The BAR/BRI course is different from law school courses. It is extremely condensed and requires you to blend the three components - lectures, substantive outlines and practice testing exercises to bring you to peak performance for your bar exam The more you know about the BAR/BRI course the better you can determine what you will need.
