Reciprocity

Brandeis School of Law participates in a reciprocal career services agreement with other ABA-accredited law schools. This allows third-year students and graduates to request temporary access to career services at participating schools outside the Louisville area.

Brandeis School of Law Reciprocity Policy

The Office of Professional Development at the University of Louisville Brandeis School of Law will grant reciprocity to 3L students and graduates of other law schools – provided that the requesting law school offers comparable privileges to Brandeis students and alumni.
