Utah Reciprocity Utah has reciprocity agreements with: AK, CO, CT, DC, GA, ID, IL, IN, IA, KY, MA, MI, MN, MO, NE, NH, NY, NC, ND, OH, OK, PA, TN, TX, VT, VA, WA, and WY.
It usually takes months to process a C&F application. California states their process will take at least six months, but anecdotally students have reported timeframes of eight to ten months. Check your NCBE or state bar portal regularly for emails from your investigator.
UBE scores are deemed valid only if transferred to the Utah State Bar directly from the MPRE testing authority. Please visit the NCBE's website for information on requesting the transfer of your score to Utah.
ADMISSION BY UBE TRANSFER QUESTIONS UBE Scores are transferable for up to 3 years from the date that the applicant sat for the Bar Exam (NOT the date the score was released or the date of admission in another jurisdiction).
Texas's additional reciprocity requirements include: Law Degree. A law degree from an ABA approved law school (determined at the time of enrollment or graduation and not at a later date). Character and Fitness.
D.C. allows lawyers to transfer UBE scores within 5 years (60 months) of passing the exam.
Yes. Each jurisdiction makes its own character and fitness decisions. You must complete the application forms and meet the admission requirements, including approval of your character and fitness, as determined by the jurisdiction to which you transfer a UBE score.
It is important, when responding to a “character and fitness” question, that you provide the facts and any relevant explanation. It is equally important to take responsibility and avoid suggesting that you were framed or that the fault lies with someone other than yourself.
You must take the examination in a UBE jurisdiction to earn a portable UBE score. The UBE is more than the sum of its components. It is uniformly administered, graded, and scored by the jurisdictions that adopt it.
California, on the other hand, does not accept UBE scores from any other state. If you're an attorney who's been practicing for less than four years in one state and want to practice in California, you'll have to prepare for and pass the California Bar Exam.
