School of Law Admissions

Welcome to Fordham Law

Your Fordham Law degree is a gateway. To a meaningful career. To a life of service. To the point where your professional interests meet your personal aspirations.

Whether you want to lead in the law, business, politics, finance, government, public interest, academia, or another career field, a Fordham Law education will prepare you for success.

Choose among three law degrees—J.D., LL.M., and S.J.D. degree programs, as well as a degree designed specifically for non-lawyers—the M.S.L. Each of these programs provides a rigorous academic experience in a supportive learning environment.

Throughout its more than 100-year history, Fordham Law has become one of the largest and most respected law schools in the nation. The School is committed to diversity and inclusion. Its more than 17,000 active alumni practice in all 50 U.S. states and in 75 foreign countries.

Some of Fordham's greatest strengths lie in its sense of community, faculty, and location in Manhattan—the nation's commercial and legal capital. Fordham Law offers dynamic academic programs including corporate law, intellectual property and information technology, international law; an award-winning moot court and Alternate Dispute Resolution program; and numerous public service initiatives, just to name a few.

We encourage you to explore our programs and join our global community of leading professionals.
