Application Process
Register for LSAC’s LL.M. Credential Assembly Service (CAS)
You should register and pay for LSAC's LL.M. Credential Assembly Service (CAS) at least four to six weeks before your first law school application deadline. It takes approximately two weeks for LSAC to process a U.S. transcript or letter of recommendation from the time that it is received; transcripts from non-U.S. institutions may take longer to process. LSAC will not send your Law School Report to us until all official transcripts—and your TOEFL score, if required—are received. It is your responsibility to make certain that LSAC receives all of your materials in a timely manner.
International applicants must register for LSAC's Document Assembly Service. We also require LSAC's International Transcript Authentication and Evaluation Service.
Arrange for letters of recommendation
We require a minimum of two, and accept a maximum of four, letters of recommendation. Generally, these letters should be written by faculty members who know you and your work well. Applicants in teaching or practice may substitute a letter from an employer or supervisor. You may submit up to four letters; however, your file will be deemed complete when two letters have arrived. Letters of recommendation must be sent through LSAC’s Letter of Recommendation (LOR) Service. More about letters of recommendation ...
Take the TOEFL
All applicants must submit an official score on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), unless their native language is English, or they received their undergraduate education or first law degree at an institution where English is the language of instruction. The Admissions Committee requires a minimum TOEFL score of 100 on the Internet-based test.
Learn more about Yale Law School
You are welcome to visit the Law School or browse the Law School's website. We do not typically conduct evaluative interviews; in certain limited cases, we may reach out to some applicants during our review process for further clarification or discussion of their application materials.
Complete the application form
We require all applicants to the LL.M. program to submit their applications through LSAC's Electronic Application Service. Submit your application online through the LSAC electronic application no later than the December 1 deadline.
Complete the two essay questions and include them, along with your curriculum vitae, as attachments to your application
Two separate essays are required as a part of the application to the LL.M. program. Please note that a personal statement is not required and cannot be substituted for or take the place of these required essays.
—In no more than 1000 words, please explain your scholarly research, what prompts your focus on the issues you discuss, and how you have explored them thus far. Critical discussion of specific articles or books that have influenced the formation of your research agenda is particularly welcome. (If you include footnotes, they are not counted for the purposes of the word limit.)
—In no more than 250 words, please describe how an LL.M. program would advance your professional aspirations and goals.
Pay the application fee of $75 (USD)
The application fee is $75 (USD), payable through LSAC by credit card. The application fee is separate and in addition to any fees charged by LSAC for its application, credential assembly, and authentication services. This fee is non-refundable and will not be credited to tuition in the event of admission.
Receive confirmation of your application
You will receive notification from us when we receive your application and, again, when your application is complete. If you have not received notification by January 15, 2021, please contact us. We typically make admissions decisions in mid-March.
