Emory Law’s online, asynchronous classes are specifically designed for working professionals. Students can also choose some on-campus course options. The online format is composed of 10 sequential asynchronous courses, with two synchronous online experiences, and can be completed in as little as 20 months. If you take most of your courses on campus, you can complete the degree in two sequential semesters or take up to four years. Students who study on campus take classes alongside JD and graduate students from around the world.
