Part-Time Program

If you are offered admission to the Law School, you may choose to attend on a part-time basis. There is no separate application procedure, but upon acceptance you will be asked to choose full or part-time enrollment, though you may subsequently change your enrollment status.

Part-time students need to complete the first-year curriculum within two years of entering and must complete the course work required for the J.D. degree within six years. First year courses generally require you to be on campus four times per week and some are offered in the late afternoon and early evening. Part-time students wishing to take courses only in the late afternoon and early evening should note that one-half of the first-year program courses are generally offered in the evenings of alternate years, thus making it possible to complete the first-year program in the evenings within the requisite two years.
