We understand how challenging and important it is for you to choose the right master of laws program, one that will fulfill your unique personal and professional goals by supporting and inspiring you.
The University of California is the premiere public University system in the U.S. and the University of California, Davis (UC Davis) School of Law is a top tier law school.

At UC Davis, our LL.M. students enjoy the enhanced opportunities and peace of mind that come from year-round personalized academic advising provided by faculty, staff and me. Our office assists students with everything else, too, from completing the application to registering for graduation and beyond. We help students with housing and, for our students with families, with placing their children in enriching daycare and in Davis’s excellent public schools. We ensure students have the visa and healthcare services they need to live in Davis safely and healthily. We provide opportunities to connect deeply with other LL.M. and J.D. students through social events and academic and cultural field trips.
We encourage all our LL.M. students to take advantage of the Law School’s tremendous variety of additional extra-curricular and co-curricular activities, including dozens of student clubs, lectures, workshops, and career events. In addition, the larger UC Davis campus offers academic and cultural programming throughout the year, as well as opportunities to participate in sports and fitness, the arts and more.
