Overview
LL.M. IN AMERICAN LEGAL STUDIES
American trained lawyers are not eligible. The American Legal Studies degree offered by St. Mary's University satisfies the U.S. legal education requirement for the LL.M. graduate to sit for the Texas, California or New York Bar exams. Some jurisdictions require additional components, such as pro bono service, and each candidate is responsible for determining those requirements as set by each state.
