MLS, Master of Legal Studies
If you want to understand legal principles and apply them to your field of interest, without actually becoming a lawyer, the Master of Legal Studies (MLS) is for you. The MLS is a flexible 30-credit graduate program for those interested in learning about the law, or whose work intersects with the law.
- Offered in the fall and spring
- Full or part-time options
- Online or on campus
- Focus your MLS on popular areas of study
- Or pursue an MLS concurrently with several graduate business degrees at ASU:
In order to be admitted to the MLS program, you must have completed a bachelor's degree from an accredited four-year college or university in the United States or attained a comparable degree from a foreign institution. Graduate school entrance exams (e.g. LSAT, GRE, GMAT) are not required.
