Blended learning

A lower-residency enrollment option that builds on our experience offering the pioneering HYBRID J.D.. Come to campus twice per semester, or less, and spend the rest of the time doing your coursework online. Our case study workshops are designed to develop emerging workplace skills through in-depth explorations of how lawyers have used legal training to creatively address complex socioeconomic, public policy, and justice system problems. You’ll earn your degree in four years or less, and you’ll be eligible to sit for the bar exam in every state—including New York.

With changes in ABA requirements, we can now offer our refined blend of two interrelated elements: intensive in-person experiential learning and online coursework to help more students study the law from anywhere in the world.
