Calculation of the age of the score is from the date of the exam administration NOT the date scores were released from the jurisdiction.

NOTE: Active Practice of Law includes the following activities if performed in a jurisdiction in which the applicant is admitted and authorized to practice law, or if performed in a jurisdiction that affirmatively permits such activity by a lawyer not admitted in that jurisdiction:

  • Representing a client(s) in the private practice of law;
  • Services as a lawyer with a local, state, territorial or federal agency, or governmental branch, including military service;
  • Teaching law at a law school approved by the Council of the Section of Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar of the American Bar Association;
  • Services as a judicial officer in a federal, state, territorial or local court of record;
  • Service as a judicial law clerk (after obtaining a law license, even if a law license is not required for the position); or
  • Services as legal counsel to the lawyer's employer or its organizational affiliates.

UPL NOTE: For purposes of this rule, the active practice of law does not include work that, as undertaken, constituted the unauthorized practice of law in the jurisdiction in which it was performed or in the jurisdiction in which the clients receiving the unauthorized services were located.

NOTE: In no event shall any activities performed pursuant to any rule regarding the practice of law pending admission or in advance of bar admission in another jurisdiction be accepted toward the durational requirement; this includes any practice pending admission certifications as well as student practice.

MPRE
MPRE

NOTE: Please request that NCBE send a score report to Colorado. Most of the scores must be reviewed and approved manually, so please allow time for processing. The MPRE is not required to file an application for admission via UBE Score Transfer. Applicants may take the exam while their application is in process. Considering the processing time for character and fitness, it is encouraged for applicants to submit their application for Admission while waiting to take the MPRE, if needed.
