FYLSE
First Year Law Students' Examination
To earn a Juris Doctorate Degree, the California State Bar regulates licensing through the First-Year Law Students' Examination. All students at the California School of Law will be required to take and pass the First-Year Law Students' Examination to complete Law School. You can review the California School of Law’s FYLSE Results.
Students must pass this examination within three administrations of first becoming eligible to take the exam in order to receive credit for law study accomplished up to the time of passage. If they pass the examination on their fourth or more attempts, they will receive credit for only one year of law study.
You can find information about the California School of Law’s review class at FYLSE Review Class.
