A person whose undergraduate work was taken outside the United States is reminded that the source of the degree may bear on eligibility to practice law in a particular state. Persons who are not American citizens are advised that the practices in various states may differ with regard to their eligibility to be examined for admission to the bar, regardless of where their undergraduate and law degrees were obtained. The college may admit persons whose professional activities would benefit from law study to take selected courses as special students. Credit earned by a special student is not accepted toward a degree in law. Any person wishing to be so admitted must file with the college an application for admission, a transcript of any college credit earned, and a written statement explaining how the study of particular law courses would be of benefit.
Special students are subject to all requirements prescribed for regular students.
Members of the Bar Members of the bar may be admitted to the classes of the College upon an application showing evidence of their pre-legal education, legal education and admission to the bar, providing they enroll without expectation of credit. If they desire credit, they must qualify in the usual manner as regular or special students. Auditors Persons with a broad educational background, who have a special need for a limited acquaintance with an area of law, may be admitted to one or more classes in the College upon application with an accompanying statement of their situation and needs. Unless the applicant seeks admission as a regular or special student, status and privileges will be those of an auditor as defined by University rules and practices, and the student will receive no credit for attendance or work done pursuant to such enrollment.
