Bid Point Allocation
A number of bidding points are assigned to each class/program of students at the Law School for use over the entire academic year, which begins with the fall semester and ends with the spring semester (we do not bid for summer term). Points will not be visible in CAESAR until bidding opens.
Make sure, at the end of Fall bidding, that you have points remaining in your account to bid for Spring classes.
Annual Bidding Points will be allocated as noted below. Students are encouraged to reserve points for use in all biddable terms during the academic year.
