ER CURIAM
P
etitioner passed the July 2021 Louisiana bar examination. However, the
Committee on Bar Admissions (“Committee”) advised petitioner that it could not
certify her for admission to the bar. Petitioner then applied to this court, seeking
admission to the bar or, alternatively, the appointment of a commissioner. We
remanded this matter to the Committee on Bar Admissions Panel on Character and
Fitness to conduct an investigation and appointed a commissioner to take character
and fitness evidence. The primary issue raised during the proceeding w as
petitioner’s academic discipline while she was an undergraduate student, which
discipline she failed to disclose on her law school application.
Following a hearing, t he commissioner filed his report with this court,
recommending that petitioner be admitted to the practice of law. Neither party
objected to this recommendation.
Considering the commissioner’s recommendation and the entire record of this
proceeding, we conclude petitioner is eligible to be admitted to the practice of law
in Louisiana.

SSION GRANTED.
