FAQ's


Transfer Applicants

Transfer students must produce evidence of satisfactory study in an ABA-approved law school and be eligible to continue at the school from which the transfer is sought. In addition, transfer applicants must submit the following:

  • A completed Saint Louis University School of Law application 
  • LSAT/LSDAS report from Law Services 
  • A letter of recommendation from a law school professor 
  • A letter from the dean or appropriate law school official certifying that the student is "in good standing" and eligible to return. 
  • An official transcript of all law school work, including class rank where available. An unofficial transcript will suffice when the official transcript is unavailable at the time of application. (Please note that a decision made on the basis of an unofficial transcript is contingent upon receipt of the official transcript as soon as it is available.) The number of credits that will be applied toward the J.D. degree at Saint Louis University School of Law will depend on the content of the completed courses and the grades received in those courses.
