Part-Time J.D. Program
A maximum of five persons may be admitted on a part-time basis to the first-year J.D. degree program in each admissions cycle. Such applicants must meet the admissions standards required of applicants for full-time study and are assessed for admission using the same criteria. The Admissions Committee will consider the reasons provided for studying on a part-time basis and the competitive strength of the application in the category of admission claimed. Applicants accepted as part-time students are expected to complete the J.D. degree program within six years. The J.D. program is not offered by distance education and it is not recommended for students who would be commuting long distances on a regular basis to attend class.
