- A completed St. John's University School of Law application submitted via the LSAC website, containing a statement of the applicant's reasons for seeking visiting student status;
- A letter of good standing and permission to visit from the Dean of the ABA-approved law school the applicant currently attends;
- An official transcript containing grades for all law school courses the applicant has completed;
- A copy of the applicant's CAS report — the copy may be forwarded with the official transcript from the ABA-approved law school the applicant currently attends;

Summer Visiting Students
The eight-week summer session normally runs from early June through early August. Applicants with advanced standing may be admitted to the summer program, at the discretion of the Committee on Admissions, on the following conditions:
The applicant submits a special summer-program application. (The application is available in the spring.) It should be filed as early as possible, but no later than June 1.
The applicant provides a letter of good standing and approval, signed by the Dean of the ABA-approved law school at which the applicant is a matriculated student. This letter also should certify that the applicant will have completed at least one year of law study by the end of the spring semester.
