Kim Kardashian Graduates Law School After 6 Years - Video

Kim Kardashian graduated from law school after six years of legal training, which included taking three "baby bar" exams and 5,184 hours of studies.Kim Kardashian is done keeping up with her studies.

After all, the Kardashians star announced May 21 that she has graduated from law school after six years of legal training.

And to mark her academic milestone, she threw a small commencement ceremony with family and friends—including sister Khloe Kardashian, kids Saint West, 9, Chicago West, 7, and Psalm West, 6, as well as pal Van Jones—complete with place settings made from her old study notes.

"All of you guys have been on this journey with me," Kim began in her speech, which was shared on Instagram Stories. "It did start with Van and I. Well, it started with the Twitter video that I saw that popped up."

The 44-year-old explained she was "dumbfounded" by the state of the legal system at the time, so she started looking into criminal justice reform. That led to her enrolling in a four-year apprenticeship with a San Francisco law firm in 2018 and taking the "baby bar" exam—which signifies the completion of the first year of study for students taking unaccredited law classes—three times before passing it in 2021.
