• The M.C.L. degree is conferred upon students completing 20 credit hours with at least a 2.3 ("C+") average in two terms of residence. Otherwise, M.C.L. students have the same curricular flexibility and choice as LL.M. students: like the LL.M. candidate, the M.C.L. student must take the required constitutional law class and write a research paper.
  • All students who would be eligible to earn an M.C.L. degree will be given admission to the "M.C.L./LL.M." program and may decide at the beginning of the first semester, upon individual academic advising, which of the two degrees to pursue.
