Reciprocity
Reciprocity Policy: Reciprocity is a mutual exchange of career services privileges between ABA-accredited law schools, allowing reasonable access to career resources for law students and graduates of participating institutions. Atlanta’s John Marshall Law School (AJMLS) extends reciprocity privileges to law schools that offer similar services to AJMLS students and graduates.

- Requests for reciprocity must be submitted in writing or via email by a career services/placement official of the requesting law school at least two weeks prior to accessing the institution’s career portal. Requests must include the applicant’s name, address, email, and graduation year.
