3.13 Limit on Quarters of Enrollment

No J.D. student at the Law School may exceed the nine quarters of enrollment, except in special circumstances as approved by the Rules & Petitions Committee, such as when a student has earned a failing grade and not completed the J.D. requirements. Once a student has completed the J.D. requirements, no further quarters of enrollment at the Law School will be permitted. For dual degree students, once a student has completed the J.D. requirements, no further quarters of enrollment at the Law School will be permitted, even if an additional quarter would be approved by the program in the corresponding school or division at the University.

LL.M. students may not exceed three quarters of enrollment. M.L.S. students who are enrolled in the full-time M.L.S. program may not exceed three quarters of enrollment.
