Transfer Applicants

The Admissions Committee reviews applications from transfer students according to ABA Standards. A transfer applicant must meet the following:

• The student currently attends a fully-approved ABA law school.
• The Barry Law general admissions application must be completed with "transfer applicant" marked accordingly.
• A $50 application fee is required.
• The student is in "good standing" and "eligible to return" to that institution as documented by a Letter of Good Standing.
• An official transcript from the current law school must be submitted. An unofficial (student version) transcript may be submitted initially for the admissions decision. Note: An official transcript must be submitted to Barry Law before the first day of enrollment.
• Note: Generally, a 2.5 law GPA is required for transfer consideration.
• The "law school report" from LSDAS must also be submitted for review of the LSAT scores, undergraduate GPA, and two recommendation letters.
• A personal statement explaining the reason for the intended law school transfer must be submitted.

* Note: The LSAT score should meet or exceed the 25th percentile goal for the current entering class for the competitive transfer applicant.
