The law school's accreditation agency, the American Bar Association, prohibits full-time students from working more than 20 hours per week. Long hours of study and class preparations are necessary for first-year students and, generally, the school tries to spread first-year classes throughout the day. Therefore, full-time students are advised to make whatever personal arrangements may be necessary to be available for class on a daily basis, Monday through Friday. Full-time students found to be in violation of this rule may be required to drop credits and become part-time students.
