Students from ABA-approved law schools can attend Howard University School of Law for one semester or one academic school year. Visiting student status is granted on the basis of the applicant’s law school performance at their home institution and the availability of space in the requested courses at Howard.

Due to the short period of time that a visiting student is in residence at Howard, participation in the On Campus Interviewing (OCI) process is reserved for full time and transfer students. However, visiting students are able to use the other resources of the Career Services Center.

Applicants may submit an application online.  Click Here to Apply to Howard University School of Law as a Visiting Applicant:
