Program Details

Accommodations and Meals

All students receive pre-arranged housing in Boston, included in tuition, for the duration of their Boston-based studies. During each residential session, students attend daily school-provided luncheons, where they interact and network with fellow global practitioners, thus expanding their world-wide connections.

Bar Eligibility

BU Law does not make any representations about whether this program, or any of its graduate programs, qualifies individuals to take a U.S. state bar exam. Each of the 50 states in the United States sets its own requirements for bar admission. Foreign-trained lawyers should contact the appropriate state’s authority directly to obtain specific bar admission information. Eligibility in New York is based on an individual applicant’s foreign law school study and enrollment in the United States at an ABA-approved law school, such as at BU Law.
