Transfer Students
Students in good standing at other accredited law schools (ABA-AALS) may transfer to Emory Law after your first year if ranked in upper half of your class.
Quick Facts:

- Transfer students will be credited with acceptable hours earned elsewhere.
- You may graduate after successfully completing not less than four full semesters of residence and not less than 90 semester hours, at least 58 of which have been completed at Emory.
- We begin accepting transfer applications May 1. Deadline is June 30.
- Applications are only accepted through www.lsac.org.
