The LL.M. degree program for foreign-trained lawyers is open to any graduate with a law degree (e.g., J.D., LL.B., B.L., B.A. in Law and Society) from another country. Applications are accepted for fall semester only, which begins in mid-August. You should plan your arrival for the beginning of August to make housing arrangements. Neither the Law School Admission Test (LSAT) nor the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) is required. Please do not send documents directly to the Admissions Office unless requested. If you are a U.S. citizen or permanent resident holding a green card, you are eligible for either the part-time or full-time LL.M. program. If you are not a U.S. citizen or permanent resident you are eligible only the full-time program in order to meet the minimum hours required for a student visa. Most of the required LL.M. courses for foreign-trained lawyers are held in the evening to accommodate work schedules. The bar track LL.M program is offered in person, rather than online, in compliance with the Supreme Court of Georgia’s directives. Credits are not transferable from another LL.M. program to Georgia State Law.
