This contribution presents the organisation and the education system of the Reformed Law Academy of Kecskemét that functioned until 1949. This summary was prepared by using the archive sources unrevealed until now. The organisation, education and supervision system of the Hungarian legal academies in the period of dualism evolved in 1874 via state measures. The provisions establishing the reform of the higher education and the legal education – and in several aspects reminiscent of the Austrian era – remained effective until the termination of the legal academies in 1949. The structure and system of the legal academies funded by the state were also applied to the institutions funded by the church and both funded by church and state, so too the Reformed Law Academy of Kecskemét. This contribution offers an overview of the structural order of the period between 1875 and 1948, the regulation of the institution by church and state, and the norms of financial funds.
