As a condition for graduation students are required to undergo apprenticeship for a minimum period of 240 hours. Apprenticeship may be undertaken in one or two summers after a student has completed his second year in the Law School. Existing rules of the apprenticeship program allows students to perform apprenticeship work in law offices, government agencies, public or private legal assistance agencies and in courts.
The apprenticeship program requires qualified attorneys who shall assist the students in the actual practice of law. The supervising attorney evaluates the performance of the students and recommends to the Dean whether academic credits can be granted on the basis of such evaluation. Students must earn a total of four (4) academic credits from apprenticeship work to be eligible for graduation.
Students participating in the Human Rights and Legal Aid programs may earn academic credits for apprenticeship, subject to fulfillment of certain conditions.
