Reciprocity
Alumni considering relocation or who are living in an area near another law school may be eligible to access various career services of the school. Reciprocity policies vary greatly from school to school. Many schools have posted their reciprocity policy on their websites. Also, the NALP website, www.nalp.org , includes links to reciprocity policies of many of the NALP member schools. Most schools will require a request for reciprocity to come through the graduate's career services office. Please contact Career Services regarding reciprocity request letters. Except for designated closed reciprocity periods, the University of California Law School Career Services offices maintain open reciprocity to fellow UC law alumni. Certain restrictions may apply. Please call the office in advance of your arrival to verify services and to schedule an appointment, if required.
