Prerequisites for Admission
Other requirements to be completed before admission:
Admission to the law graduate minor is contingent upon prior admission to a University of Minnesota master's or doctoral degree-granting program. Enrollment in Law School courses is on a space-available basis, with preference given to law-degree-seeking candidates. Some Law School courses are open for graduate student registration without need for permission. Other courses require that students request admission by completing a declaration form and the non-law student petition form (found at https://www.law.umn.edu/academics/non-degree-programs/graduate-and-undergraduate-courses), and submitting them to the Law School registrar's office.
