LL.M. Admissions
Entry is very competitive and depends on both the candidate's ability and motivation.
We also strive for geographic and cultural balance within the class. U.S. and international
applicants worldwide are welcome.
When to Apply
International applicants must submit a full application no later than
February 1 of the year in which they plan to commence study at the
University of Washington. As the processing of international applications requires
extra time, we appreciate early submission of application materials.
We make admission decisions immediately after February 1, and we notify applicants
no later than February 28.
U.S. applicants must submit a full application no later than May 1 of the
year in which they plan to commence study at the University of Washington. We strongly
recommend U.S. applicants to submit a full application by February 1
for consideration at the same time as international applicants, so as to maximize
their chances of admission.
Students are generally expected to start at the beginning of Autumn Quarter.
