Policies
Each year, we inform incoming students that they are responsible for reading the Law School Catalog and to understand and abide by our rules and regulations.
Additionally, on many issues, the university’s M Book policies may apply. There are a few areas, however, that cause recurring problems. Before students even register for classes, students should read the Honor Code and review the policies below:
