New York Law School permits students in good academic standing to take courses and earn academic credits only through American Bar Association-approved summer abroad programs.

Listing of Summer Programs:

  • Listings of ABA-approved summer abroad programs (with brief descriptions of each program) are available in alphabetical order by country name: A through C / D through F / G through L, and M through Z.
  • For the original links to ABA-approved summer abroad programs (which don't contain brief descriptions of the programs), please visit the ABA study abroad homepage.

Summer Abroad Guidelines:

  • The Center for International Law does not handle the logistics for study abroad.
  • Instead, students must obtain permission from the Office of Academic Affairs (2nd Floor of the "A" building) before attending a summer abroad program. All courses must also be approved in advance. Please visit the Office of Academic Affairs (2nd Floor of the "A" Building) to fill out a permission form. That office has also posted a list of frequently asked questions (and answers) concerning study abroad.
  • New York Law School will transfer up to six credits from a summer abroad program and apply them towards the 86 credits needed for graduation, provided that the grade received was a "C" or higher. Students will receive credit only, since New York Law School does not accept or transfer the grades received.
  • Please note that credit will be given for only one summer abroad program. Furthermore, students should be aware that, generally, residence credit will not be awarded for a summer abroad program and, therefore, students may not use such programs to accelerate their date of graduation. (Resident credit is awarded only for those programs in which the in-class component of the program is at least eight weeks long.)
