Taking Courses at Other Law Schools
Courses in Other Law Schools: With the permission of the Dean and subject to Rule 2-1, a student may take for credit regular and summer school courses offered by any other law school that is a member of the Association of American Law Schools.
For courses taken at schools other than the University of North Carolina School of Law (UNC) or the North Carolina Central University Law School (NCCU), a student may apply no more than six credit hours earned under this Rule toward the JD. For courses taken at UNC or NCCU, the total credits applicable to the JD are not limited, but a student may take and apply to the JD no more than two courses at either institution per semester.
This Rule does not limit the number of credit hours a student may take and apply to a JD degree for courses taken pursuant to a Duke-approved semester abroad [see Rule 3-26] or visits at other law schools [see Rule 3-30]. [See Rule 3-13 for grading of non-Duke courses.]
