Hi everyone and happy new year.
Just had a question regarding the eligibility requirements for the NY bar (being a french attorney) and more especially the notion of "program of study in the US". Most people attend a LLM. I, on the other hand, followed one year of study in a US law school thanks to an exchange program. I followed the same classes as JD students and took the same exams. It covered 24 credits but I do not hold a LLM but rather a certificate of completion and my US grades have also been converted by my french university to get a further french diploma but completed in the US?
Any idea on whether that could match? It would make sense
Thanks a lot for your help
Cheers
