It is our pleasure to introduce you to Atlanta’s John Marshall Law School (AJMLS). Situated in Atlanta, AJMLS is unmatched in convenience, flexibility in J.D. programs, and supportive administration, faculty, and student body.
The law school offers prospective students a range of programs outside the traditional full-time J.D. program. Our part-time J.D. program is ideal for working adults seeking a legal education; and students seeking a dual path may apply to co-enroll in the Criminal Justice Certificate Program after successful completion of their second year.
Regardless of the program path, we pride ourselves on providing a student-centered atmosphere in which each student receives personal and specialized attention.
Of all the elements that give AJMLS its special character, the Law School takes its greatest pride in its student body. Students from across the nation bring their remarkable talents and professional accomplishments to the community creating an environment with serious purpose, social commitment, and the joy of learning the law within a highly diverse group of individuals. One of our student body’s most admirable characteristics is the collective non-competitive nature of the students. There is a sense of learning and working together as a family to reach their goals, rather than competing head-to-head in the classroom.
We invite you to contact an admissions representative at (678) 916-2620 or admissions@johnmarshall.edu to learn more about the South’s up-and-coming law school and/or visit for a tour of our campus. We are building something great here and hope you choose to be a part of it.
Sincerely, the Office of Admissions

Qualifications for Admission to the Bar
In addition to a bar examination, there are character, fitness, and other qualifications for admission to the bar in every U.S. jurisdiction. Applicants are encouraged to determine the requirements for any jurisdiction in which they intend to seek admission by contacting the jurisdiction. Addresses for all relevant agencies are available through the National Conference of Bar Examiners.
Title IX
On May 6, 2020, the Department of Education issued new Title IX regulations, with the requirement that they be implemented by August 14, 2020. Title IX is a federal law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in educational programs and activities that receive federal financial assistance. The law also pertains to cases of sexual harassment and sexual assault. As a result of the new regulations, Atlanta’s John Marshall Law School and other schools across the country were required to review and make revisions to existing sexual harassment policies. Our new Title IX Policy is available online and may be accessed here.
While much is happening around the country, we remain committed to providing resources and support to members of our community who are impacted by sexual and gender-based harassment. Dean Harrison, the Law School’s Title IX Coordinator, is available to answer any questions you have about your rights and options under our Title IX Policy; the reporting, investigation and resolution processes; and the resources that are available. Dean Harrison can be reached at sharrison@johnmarshall.edu or (678) 916-2681.
Non-Discrimination Policy
Consistent with sound educational policy, Atlanta’s John Marshall Law School, in compliance with Titles VI and VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972 (45 CFR 86), and Sections 503 and 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, and other best practices, does not discriminate on the basis of sex, handicap, disability, race, color, religion, age, national or ethnic origin, marital status, veteran status, political affiliation or belief, gender identity, gender expressions, or sexual or affectional preference in the law school’s educational and campus life programs, admissions policies, employment and compensation policies, financial aid and scholarships allocation, code of conduct, or other school administered programs and events.
