are Duke undergrads allowed to take courses at Duke Law school?

and if they are, would American J.D. programs or foreign graduate LL.B programs be willing to grant credit for these courses, possibly for advanced graduation from law school?

i would like to know if it's possible, both for american J.D. and for foreign LL.Bs. has it happened before?

Thanks!

I have not heard of this. The law school operates on a different schedule than the undergraduate schools (as do the other professional schools). It is far more common for undergrads to take 200+ level courses (graduate courses) within Pratt and the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences.

I'm fairly certain that undergrads can take some law courses, but I don't they'd count for JD programs. At least, I know MANY people who took Chemerinsky's consitutional law class as undergrads (Schedule of Courses, although Chemerinsky has left.

I have friends who are in Chemerinsky's Constitutional Law class now and it's an undergraduate course. It's not a law school course even though he's a law school professor.
