The Arizona Supreme Court administers the Uniform Bar Examination (UBE). Applicants passing a UBE are allowed to transfer a passing score earned in Arizona to other UBE jurisdictions without testing, subject to the rules of that state. UBE rules vary from state to state; please contact specific jurisdictions if you wish to seek admission based on UBE. Additional information about the Uniform Bar Examination, including a list of UBE jurisdictions, may be found at www.ncbex.org.
|
| There are three paths for admission to the practice of law in the state of Arizona:
|
|
Admission by Uniform Bar Examination - testing in Arizona
Admission on Motion
Admission by Uniform Bar Examination - transfer of Uniform Bar Examination score earned in another state
