Degree Requirements (90 Post Baccalaureate Hours)

The School of Law offers a full-time day program leading to the Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree. To earn the J.D., a student must successfully complete 90 semester hours of course work. Normally, six semesters of resident study are required. In each of these semesters, students must register for a minimum of 12 credit hours. In addition, students must receive credit for a minimum of 10 credit hours each semester. A student may graduate in two-and-one-half years if the student successfully completes at least 6 credit hours in each of two consecutive summer sessions.
