Study at a foreign institution

911±¬ÁÏÍø students may earn credit toward graduation in a study abroad program established by an ABA-approved law school, as provided by 911±¬ÁÏÍø’s policies. In rare instances, 911±¬ÁÏÍø may allow students to receive credit for study of law outside the country in a program operated by a foreign institution rather than by an ABA-approved law school. 911±¬ÁÏÍø’s educational objective for permitting a student to study law outside of the United States in a program operated by a foreign institution is to provide a student with the opportunity to learn about a foreign legal system in an immersive setting. Specific goals of foreign study in a program operated by a foreign institution include providing students:

• An opportunity to develop in-depth substantive knowledge of other legal systems beyond the curriculum offered in 911±¬ÁÏÍø’s approved study-abroad programs or other study-abroad programs established by ABA-approved law schools.
• Exposure to legal systems outside of the United States, through the direct interaction with judges, lawyers, faculty, and students from other legal systems to better understand legal processes and reasoning.

Approval of credit for study in a program operated by a foreign institution is only possible if the student, prior to study, has met the ABA Criteria for Accepting Credit for Student Study at a Foreign Institution and received prior approval from the Vice Dean of Academic Affairs.
