Transfer Applicants

Transfer Applicants

The School of Law welcomes transfer applications from students who will have completed their first year at another ABA-approved law school.

There are two transfer options available:

Early Transfer

If accepted, early transfer students will begin upper-level coursework when the summer term commences in early May. This will allow students to utilize the Center for Co-op and Career Development to prepare for and obtain a co-op for the fall term. Applicants will receive a decision shortly after their files are complete.

Regular Transfer

If accepted, regular transfer students will begin upper-level coursework in the fall term. Applicants will receive a decision shortly after their files are complete. Transcripts must include second semester grades.

To apply as a transfer student, submit the following:

• Application by deadline (March 1 for Early Transfer, July 1 for Regular Transfer*)
• Dean’s letter of good standing
• Résumé
• Transfer statement
• CAS report that includes LSAT results, letter(s) of recommendation (one letter from a current law school professor required; two letters allowed) and all required transcripts, including your current law school.

There is no application fee for any application.

*This is the priority deadline for transfer students. Applications received after July 1 will be reviewed on a space-available basis. All admitted students must submit an enrollment deposit no later than July 15.
