No application shall be accepted which is not filed on official forms and which is not accompanied by the full amount of fees due. Payment of fees shall be made to "Board of Bar Admissions".

The applicant must give a full and direct response to all inquiries on the Application and furnish all additional documents required by the Application.
The answers contained in any Application shall be made under oath. The duty to make a true and complete response shall be considered as continuing from the date of the filing of the Application until the date upon which the applicant is admitted to the Bar. If, at any time after the filing of any Application and before the applicant is admitted to the Bar, any answer or portion of any answer ceases to be fully true and complete or fairly requires supplementation, the applicant shall notify the Board through the Bar Admissions Administrator immediately in writing. As soon as reasonably possible after so notifying the Board, the applicant shall provide such information, documents, and disclosures as are necessary to make the Application fully true and correct. Upon receipt of such notice or supplementation from applicant, or from other sources, the Board may, in its discretion, require further information, investigation, or hearings as it may deem appropriate under the circumstances and may defer consideration of the application until a subsequent bar examination.
An applicant may request, in writing, a certified copy of his or her own completed Application Form filed with the Board under Rule III or Rule IV. The fee for obtaining a certified copy of a filed Application Form shall be $25.00 (money order, certified check, or cash only.)
