Policies & Procedures for Transfer or Application of Units to LLM Programs
1. Students must obtain approval from their LLM program directors before any units/courses may be
transferred into GGU from any law school. If seeking approval to visit away, students must submit this
form prior to registering for courses at another law school, along with course descriptions for all courses
they wish to take, to their LLM program directors.
2. Generally, LLM students may transfer in only courses completed prior to matriculating in the LLM
program. Depending on the LLM program, the program director may grant permission to current GGU
LLM students to visit away at another law school and transfer up to WZHOYH () units of related courses into the
LLM program.
3. For courses to be transferable, students must receive grades equivalent to a “%” or better, as determined by
the law school registrar at GGU. Grades equivalent to a “C” or lower are not transferable and the units
will not count toward graduation. Students who receive grades equivalent to a “C” or “&” may petition
their LLM program directors to be allowed to receive credit for these courses at GGU.
. Students must ensure their host institutions send official transcripts of all courses taken for transfer credit
directly to the GGU Law School Registrar’s Office. The transcripts must include or be accompanied by the
other law school’s grading policy or system. Failure to provide an official transcript in a timely manner
may delay graduation and/or certification for bar exams.
5. Courses must have been completed within the previous five (5) years from the term the student wishes to apply
the transfer credit to.
