Summer Session Tuition Credit

Generally, full-time J.D. students will have a tuition credit applied to cover the Summer Session Externship credits, with three exceptions:

1. Full-time J.D. students who were once part-time students and continue to pay tuition on a per-credit basis will be charged for these credits;
2. Full-time J.D. students who matriculate as transfer students in the Summer Session; and
3. Full-time students who transfer to the part-time division or to another law school after their summer externship will have a retroactive charge for their externship credits posted to their student accounts.

Please note:  Full-time J.D. students who were once part-time students and are charged a Tuition Equalization Fee in the same summer as the Summer Session Externship Credits are charged will have the tuition charge reversed as the credits are covered by the Tuition Equalization Fee.  If a student who paid a Tuition Equalization Fee in a prior summer enrolls in a subsequent Summer Session Externship Program, then those charges will be covered by a tuition credit. 

 

Regular tuition rates apply for part-time (evening division) students.

All students will be charged tuition for a summer externship initially and then, to the extent a credit is appropriate, the Office of Student Accounts will post it to the student’s account by approximately one week after the end of summer registration.

If a qualifying full-time J.D. student (i.e., one who does not fall within one of the exceptions above) has no other student account charges and receives a tuition bill for the summer externship course, the student should do nothing, and wait for the tuition credit to post. (If they have any other charges, they should pay them.)

Students are charged for tuition insurance, which can be waived. If they are only registered for the externship course, they should complete the waiver. If they are registered for more summer credits than just the externship course, they should consider their options before waiving the tuition insurance.

 

Please note: The Office of Experiential Education does not set the above tuition policies and recommendations. Questions about any of them should be directed to the Office of Student Accounts.
