Program for Non-JD Students/Master of Legal Studies (MLS) Washington University School of Law

The MLS program is a customized curriculum — students may specialize in a particular area or take a broad range of law courses to develop a general understanding of the legal system. Counselors from the Office of Graduate and International Programs work with each student to identify the best combination of courses to fit individual career or enrichment goals.

As most law courses are open to MLS students, students are able to work with exceptional faculty and interact with classmates from across the world.
