Kim Kardashian Graduates From Law School After Six Years Of Study

Kim Kardashian has finally graduated from law school after six years, celebrating with a backyard commencement ceremony in Beverly Hills.

The reality star announced this on Wednesday, May 21, and shared congratulatory messages from friends, including the US First Daughter, Ivanka Trump.

The Skims founder, 44, shared a series of Instagram stories featuring her mentors praising her for completing the four-year legal apprenticeship.

“All of you guys have been on this journey with me,” the mom-of-four said while standing at a podium at her graduation celebration.

The business mogul first expressed her legal ambitions and passion for justice reform in 2019.

Kardashian, who never completed college, decided against attending law school after failing the bar exam multiple times and instead enrolled in a legal program in California that permits individuals to qualify for the bar exam through mentorship by a licensed attorney.

“Six years ago, Kim Kardashian walked into this program with nothing but a fierce desire to fight for justice,” her mentor, attorney Jessica Jackson, said in one of the shared clips.

“No law school lectures, no ivory tower shortcuts, just determination and a mountain of case log books to read,” she said, noting that Kardashian dedicated “18 hours a week, 48 weeks a year for six straight years.”

“That’s a total of 5,184 hours of legal study. That’s time she carved out while raising four children, running businesses, filming television shows and showing up in courtrooms to advocate for others.”

Kim passed California’s First-Year Law Students’ Examination, known as the “baby bar,” after four attempts in December 2021. She still must pass the Bar Exam to be licensed to practice law in the state.
