Apply

Applicants interested in the Joint JD/Tax LLM program must already be enrolled in Loyola's JD program. Current Loyola JD students may apply for admission to the Joint JD/Tax LLM program at any time before completing their second JD year.

JD students at other US law schools may apply for admission to the Joint JD/Tax LLM for Visiting Students.

Application Deadline

The priority application deadline is Friday, March 14, 2025. Admission decisions will begin in January and continue on a rolling basis as space permits in the program.

Application Requirements

The following application and PDF documents must be completed and submitted to taxllm@lls.edu to be considered for admission:

Online Application Form

All application materials should be sent to the Office of Admissions at taxllm@lls.edu.

Visiting Student Eligibility

Enrollment as a Visiting Student is limited to applicants who have received or are currently in the process of completing a JD program from an ABA-accredited law school. Visiting students must have successfully completed at least the first year of law school.

Visiting students are full or part-time students as defined by their home institution. Visiting students may attend Loyola Law for no more than two semesters (excluding the summer term).
