Fordham Law’s MSL program is designed to accommodate your busy personal and professional schedule. The Law School offers fall and spring start dates for the Corporate Compliance program and a fall start date for the Fashion Law program; and we offer full-time and part-time study options.

Anyone who has earned an undergraduate degree from an accredited university in the U.S. or another country may apply. Individuals who have earned a JD, LLB, or similar law degree are not eligible for MSL admission. Instead, they should apply for admission to the LLM program by following this link.

The admissions committee will holistically evaluate qualified MSL applicants. The applicant's academic record, professional experience, and career aspirations, letters of recommendation, personal statement are among the factors considered by the admissions committee. For students who come from countries in which English is not the official language, English-language ability is also an important consideration.

Applicants must submit their application online. Applications will not be considered until all required materials are received and the application fee has been paid.
