Office of Student Affairs
The Office of Student Affairs (OSA) is here to assist you with advice and counseling. We act as a liaison between students, faculty and law school administrators. When you have questions, our office is the place to find answers.
We oversee orientation, academic success, accommodations for disabilities, changes in divisions, leaves of absence, character and fitness amendments, emergency exam deferrals, Title IX concerns, and other concerns students bring us. The Director of Bar Programs is also located in the OSA.
We are open from 9 am to 5 pm on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Fridays. On Wednesday we are open from 9 am until 6:30 pm. Stop by to visit us in Room 250 in the Main Law Building!
