International applicants follow the same application process as full-time JD applicants.  However, applicants who have completed more than one year of coursework at a foreign institution are required to submit their foreign transcripts through the Law School Admission Council’s (LSAC) JD Credential Assembly Service (JD CAS). The one exception to this requirement is if the applicant completed the foreign work through a study-abroad, consortium, or exchange program sponsored by a US or Canadian institution, and the work is clearly indicated as such on the home campus transcript. The JD Credential Assembly Service is included with the LSAC’s registration fees. A Foreign Credential Evaluation will be completed by the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers (AACRAO), which will be incorporated into the applicant’s Credential Assembly Services report (LSDAS).  Questions about the JD CAS can be directed to LSAC at 215.968.1001, or LSACINFO@LSAC.org.

International applicants are not required to take the TOEFL to be considered for admission to the Creighton University School of Law.  However, we do recommend that international applicants take the TOEFL.  Our Admissions Committee does find the scores helpful in the admissions process.  The TOEFL scores may be sent to the LSAC for inclusion in your Credential Assembly Services report, or you may send the scores directly to the law school.
