Transcript:
Applicants must submit official academic records showing graded course work, dates of enrollment and award of degree(s). A copy of the actual degree or state examination for all university and law school study is also required, if this information is not included on the transcript.
Curriculum Vitae:
The Curriculum Vitae should provide a synopsis of your educational and academic background and skills. This summary should include professional experience, research experience, publications, presentations, awards, honors, affiliations, and other relevant details.
Personal Statement:
One written essay is required of all applicants. The Personal Statement should describe your legal interests, the reasons you wish to study at Berkeley Law, and your professional plans or goals following completion of your degree. Since the Advanced Degree Programs Committee does not grant interviews, you may also use the statement to describe aspects of yourself that are not apparent from your application. The Personal Statement should be written without assistance from others, and should be limited to three pages of double-spaced text.
Recommendation Letter:
Berkeley Law requires two letters of recommendation. At least one letter must come from your law professor. If you have been out of school for five or more years, one professional reference from a current or former employer is appropriate. Applicants may submit one additional academic or professional letter if they wish to do so.
Writing Sample:
Applicants may also submit a significant piece of writing, which displays the candidate’s analytical and expositional skills on a legal policy or similar topic. Suitable pieces or writing include a thesis (or portion thereof), an article written in conjunction with a class, or a similar item. There is no formal length requirement for the writing sample; it should be substantial enough to display the analytical and expositional skills relevant to scholarly work. The writing sample should represent your own original writing.
Summary:
The thesis proposal summary should summarize the specific research project you would like to work on while at Berkeley Law, and should be limited to one page of double-spaced text.
