Admission to the Program
Applicants must satisfy the admission requirements of both KSB and WCL before being admitted to the program. In addition, applicants must also have completed two undergraduate courses, one in micro and one in macro economics (or the graduate equivalent), prior to entering the program. However, students who have been admitted to WCL will not be required to take the GMAT. Ideally, application to the dual degree program should be made during the admissions process to WCL, but must be made no later than the end of the WCL JD 1L year. Applicants are considered and admitted for the fall semester only.
