Fordham Law School's LL.M. programs are among the most highly regarded in the United States. These programs and the Law School's outstanding faculty members attract lawyers from the U.S. and around the world seeking specialized knowledge, training, and career advancement. Fordham's Master of Laws students gain an in-depth understanding of some of the most important and rapidly-changing fields of law. Foreign-trained law graduates also acquire a nuanced understanding of the U.S. legal system and culture.

Typically, the class that begins in August has about 140 LL.M. students from 40 countries from around the world. The class that begins in January is typically smaller but equally as diverse.

Fordham Law offers graduate students the flexibility to begin their LL.M. studies in the fall or spring semester (August or January) and to study on a full-time or part-time basis. Master of Laws students may also broaden their academic horizons by choosing classes outside of their area of specialization.

Take advantage of all this, as well as Fordham Law's location in New York City, the nation's legal, financial, and media capital, a committed student and alumni community of legal professionals around the world, and a dedicated staff of professionals who are here to ensure that your time at Fordham is both academically and personally rewarding.
