The dual JD/LLM Elder Law in Estate Planning degree allows students to earn both credentials in as few as four years and with cost savings amounting to one-third of the cost of the LLM degree if pursued outside the context of a dual degree program.
Prospective students can simultaneously apply for admission to the JD program and the LLM in Elder Law and Estate Planning program by indicating this choice on the JD application form and submitting a one-page statement regarding their motivation for pursuing the JD/LLM program. The application process is also open to students who have already matriculated but not yet completed the JD program.
JD students may enroll in up to six credits of LLM coursework that will count towards the credits required for the JD degree. Those enrolled in the dual degree program, upon completion of the JD program, may transfer 8 credits from the JD program towards the LLM degree, so that only 16 credits instead of 24 are required to complete the degree.
