UC Davis Bar Exam Information

The United States legal process operates under a federalist system. As a result, each state bar determines who and under what conditions a person may sit for its state bar exam.
We recommend that you contact the bar associations in the states where you think you may eventually want to apply. The Web site of the California Bar is http://www.calbar.ca.gov/state/calbar/calbar_home.jsp and the Web site of the New York bar is http://www.nybarexam.org.http://www.nybarexam.org.

We should note that our LL.M. students have qualified for and passed the Bar in both California and New York!
