Curriculum

Enrolled Accelerated JD students will complete an online, pre-term course, Introduction to Law and Lawyering, prior to their arrival on campus. During their first semester, they will enroll in three traditional first-year courses, as well as in Communication and Legal Reasoning 1 and Business Associations.

During the first fall semester, students will complete the three remaining first year doctrinal courses, take Legal Ethics, a perspective elective (required to take one course designated as such on CAESAR), and enroll in additional required courses on topics such as analytical methods, teamwork/leadership/project management, and/or decision-making.

During their first spring semester, students must take Communications and Legal Reasoning 2. The rest of the first spring semester is open for elective courses, as is the second fall and spring semesters.
