J.D. Curriculum
Since students in good standing may petition to switch from the full-time to the part-time program or vice versa before the start of the academic year, this will affect their course load and time to complete the degree.
FALL START PROGRAM
Students who start in the Fall Term have the option for full-time, part-time day or part-time evening study. Classes begin in mid-August. Entering students participate in a mandatory Orientation and a one-unit, first semester “Introduction to Legal Methods” course, which begins one week prior to the mid-August main session.
