Class Scheduling

Classes are ordinarily held in the evenings at the School of Law, four nights a week.  Each course meets once a week.

The Fall and Spring semesters span 14 weeks. Courses are scheduled for two hours beginning at 6:00 p.m. or 8:00 p.m.; therefore it is possible to attend one night per week and take two courses.  The Summer term is condensed into a nine-week session with three-hour classes held from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.

Because of the large number of courses included in the curriculum, not all courses are offered each semester.  Students should take that factor into account when planning their schedules to ensure that all required courses are completed, and that requirements for prerequisite and co-requisite courses are satisfied.
