A FEW SHORT STEPS TO THE WORLD
The site is laid out as a step-by-step guide to completing the research and
application process for legal study abroad. The steps are laid out below:
Decide Whether Study Abroad is Right for You: American law students who wish to study abroad should be aware of a number of restrictions that the American Bar Association imposes. The most important restriction concerns credit transfer. The ABA allows the transfer of only twelve academic credits to count toward a J. D. degree at a U. S. law school. However, fourteen credits may be transferred from a year-long, foreign L. L. M. program. Secondly, students must have completed their first year of law school, either full- or part-time, prior to studying abroad. Finally, only two students from any one U. S. law school may study at any one foreign law school during any given semester. If these restrictions are not too onerous, proceed to step two...
Decide What Type of Program is Right for You: A law student has three basic options for legal study abroad. Which one you choose depends on who you are, where you want to go, how much money you have, and what type of study program you wish to pursue. Choose one of these options to go on to step three.
