As of August 2026, admission to the Two-Year JD program at Wake Forest University School of Law is suspended until further notice. No applications for admission to the Two-Year JD program will be considered while admission is suspended.


The Two-Year JD is offered to international lawyers who received their legal education outside the U.S. Students are integrated into Wake Forest’s standard JD curriculum and can transfer up to 30 hours of credit from previous legal studies toward their JD degree.
