Transfer and transient applicants in good academic standing at other ABA-accredited law schools are encouraged to apply and complete their application by July 1. Applications will be reviewed as received, and applicants will be considered for acceptance based on their credentials and seat availability. Applicants completing their application after July 1 will be considered only if there is seat availability. In addition, good standing must be verified in a letter from the Academic Dean of the applicant's current school. Transfer applicants must currently be subscribed with LSDAS and submit a current transcript of all law school work and class rank to Mercer in addition to the standard application requirements. Generally, transfer students from another law school should be in the top half of their class. A Mercer law degree will be granted only to students who complete at least four semesters of law school at Mercer. Applications for transient status at Mercer should include a letter to the Office of the Dean, with copies of current law school transcripts attached.
