Admissions Policy:

For the sixth consecutive year, Whittier Law School, in association with Pepperdine Law School and Bar-Ilan University School of Law, is proud to announce its Israel Summer Abroad 2009 program. No other ABA-accredited law program has taken so many students to study law in Israel as our program.

This unique program is the only one of its kind -- the longest-running and largest ABA-accredited summer program taking law students to Israel.

In 2008, we had 50 students from 28 different law schools in the United States and Canada.

Program will focus on courses relevant to the region, on law in the Middle East; the Holocaust; law and religion; and globalization/human rights.

In addition to unique course work, the Israel program provides a one-of-a-kind cultural experience, including a FREE ALL-DAY GUIDED TOUR OF JERUSALEM AND ITS HOLY SITES. Optional tours are also available to the Dead Sea, the Sea of Galilee, the Jordan River, Nazareth, Eilat, the lost city of Petra in Jordan, and Cairo and its pyramids.

Legal tours include visit with a Supreme Court Justice in Jerusalem, trial court in Tel Aviv; and meeting with lawyers at the largest law firm in Israel and the Middle East.

A private bus will be at our disposal to take us to classes at Bar-Ilan University School of Law and all legal tours.
