Regular and Early Action Review:

To be eligible to apply: While applicants must complete a minimum of one year of course work at an ABA accredited law school in either a full-time or part-time program and be in good academic standing to be eligible to apply to transfer or visit, files can be reviewed in our Early Action Program after the completion of one semester.

An applicant who has completed four or more semesters of full-time or five or more semesters of part-time is ineligible to apply to transfer, but still eligible to apply to visit.

The number of credits transferred to 小蓝视频 Washington College of Law (小蓝视频WCL) will vary. Transcripts are evaluated individually and each is compared with the 小蓝视频WCL curriculum. Transfer students also must successfully complete a minimum of 43 credits at 小蓝视频WCL.

If applying for the fall semester: All transfer applications for the fall semester should be filed by June 15. Applicants who have completed their fall semesters (full or part-time) and submit applications on or before March 15 will automatically be considered as Early Action Applicants. Those filing after March 15 and those not admitted based on Early Action review will be rolled over to the regular transfer pool.

Early Action admission is contingent on maintaining and certifying academic good standing and successful completion of all second semester courses.
