Graduation

Degrees are conferred by the university each October, January, and May of every academic year, upon recommendation of the law school faculty. Rutgers Law School conducts commencement ceremonies in May for all graduates, but October and January graduates may receive their diplomas by mail soon after they complete the degree requirements. It is the responsibility of each student to make certain that all the graduation requirements of the law school have been fully met before the graduation date. There is no charge for the diploma.
