J.D. students currently enrolled at other law schools may apply for admission with advanced standing. Applicants must have completed 24 hours at their current law school. Applicants will not be considered if they have not completed these credit hours. Any credits they have earned above the 30 credit hours will not be transferred. The remaining credit hours must be completed at Loyola University Chicago School of Law.

The number of transfer candidates offered admission each year depends on the number of spaces available in the class, and on the strength of each candidate's records.

As a transfer student to Loyola University Chicago School of Law, the sole source of funding for your education is loans (transfer students cannot apply for application fee waivers). Make sure that you send a FAFSA report to Loyola University Chicago (School Code 001710). It is also your responsibility to apply for the Stafford Loan and any private loans you may wish to take. You will need to attend a loan entrance interview during the first full week of school. Please contact the admission and financial assistance office for more information.

Transfer applicants must submit a completed application form along with a $50 non-refundable application fee (transfer applicants cannot use LSDAS). The deadline for submitting the application is July 1. All other documents must be received by July 15.
