Visiting Students
 |
Students at other ABA accredited law schools looking to spend a semester or a year at the School of Law may enroll as visiting students. Visiting privileges are most often granted to students wishing to be at Boston University during one or two semesters of their third year. Students who would like to spend part or all of their second year at BU Law must present compelling reasons. Non-matriculating students may not transfer to degree status.
