New Student Orientation

Welcome Entering Class of 2012!

Student Housing PicnicWe hope you are enjoying your summer and are looking forward to your arrival in August. Orientation starts the evening of Wednesday, August 15, 2012 and continues all day Thursday, August 16, 2012. Orientation packets will be mailed to all incoming students the third week of July.

We ask all of you, including evening-division students, to make plans to attend the entire orientation program. Because orientation is an essential introduction to law school, attendance is mandatory. Dress for orientation is business casual. You will have the opportunity to have your student directory photo taken on either day of orientation.
