Bar Examination

Various states have their own requirements for admission to practice law. Some of these require registration with their official bar admission agency prior to or shortly after admission to law school in order to indicate the intention to apply for and take the bar examination in that state upon graduation from law school.

Students who have definite preferences for out-of-state employment after graduation are advised to obtain from the appropriate authority in the state in which practice is contemplated precise information concerning such requirements.

Students intending to take the bar examination and to practice in Georgia should refer to the Georgia Office of Bar Admissions for information on the application requirements, fees, and deadlines.
