ATTENDING AS A VISITING OR GUEST STUDENT

A law student who is currently enrolled at another ABA-accredited law school may apply for transient status for one or more semesters. Transient students are permitted to enroll in courses approved by the dean of their law school, provided that space is available.

Admission decisions are typically made shortly after all of the required application materials have been received.

Before your application for transient (guest) status can be considered, the following items are required:

  • A completed application form.
  • Reasons for seeking permission to enroll as a transient student at The University of Akron School of Law.  Click here to view the current schedule of classes, and click here to view course descriptions.

  • An official, original law school transcript showing all grades earned at your current law school.
