Applicants Whose Undergraduate Work Was Completed Outside the United States or Canada

Applicants with an undergraduate degree from a foreign country must take the LSAT. In addition, foreign educated applicants must register for the LSDAS subscription service. All transcripts will be evaluated by LSAC and the Law School will receive copies of both the original transcripts and the evaluation. In addition, admitted applicants will be required to submit an original transcript to the Law School.

Proficiency in English is required for admission. The Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) is required unless: 1) an applicant's native language is English; 2) bachelor's degree (or equivalent) is from an accredited institution of higher learning in an English-speaking country; or 3) the applicant has lived or worked for at least five years in a country where English is the official language.

Applicants who take the TOEFL exam must score a minimum of 600 paper score or 250 computer score to be considered for admission. To obtain information about TOEFL, write to:
