State Bar of California JD and EJD Disclosure Statements

JD Program

Study at, or graduation from, this law school does not qualify you to take the bar examination or to satisfy the requirements for admission to practice in jurisdictions other than California, Connecticut, or — with an approved petition — Indiana. Purdue Global Law School cannot guarantee that any individual’s waiver petition will be granted. Graduates who earned their JD degree in 2024 or later are eligible upon graduation to sit for the Connecticut Bar Exam through 2027, at which time Purdue Global Law School will seek renewal. After receiving a law license in California, Connecticut, or Indiana, graduates may also apply to sit for the bar exam in North Carolina and Wisconsin. There may be additional eligibility requirements to be admitted in California or any other state. For more information on the California Bar Exam, visit https://www.calbar.ca.gov/Admissions. For more information on the Indiana Bar Exam, visit https://myble.courts.in.gov/admission-information. Refer to Purdue Global’s State Licensure and Certifications page for state-specific requirements.

EJD Program

Except as provided in rule 4.30 of the Admissions Rules (legal education in a foreign state or country), completion of a professional law degree program at this law school other than for the Juris Doctor degree does not qualify a student to take the California Bar Examination or satisfy the requirements for admission to practice law in California. It may not qualify a student to take the bar examination or to satisfy requirements for admission to the practice of law in any other jurisdiction. A student intending to seek admission to practice law should contact the admitting authority in the jurisdictions where the student intends to qualify to sit for the bar examination or to be admitted to practice for information regarding their legal education requirements.
