Academic Support Program (ASP)

Tags:Academic Support ASP 

Success in law school is due in large part to understanding and mastering a particular set of skills necessary to solve specific legal problems through the application of general legal principles. 

The Academic Support Program offers students an opportunity to practice these skills in a collaborative environment with guidance and feedback from Teaching Assistants selected from the second-year class.  The ASP Teaching Assistants conduct weekly study group meetings, which are available to all first-year students interested in participating in the program.

If you will be starting law school in the fall of 2009 and are interested in participating in a weekly study group, please complete this registration form and return it as an email attachment to this address.  Registration will remain open through August 21, 2009.  Incoming students may also benefit from reviewing some of the law school related books and resources featured on our "Study Aids" page. 

In addition to the weekly study groups, the ASP sponsors a series of first-semester seminars regarding study and exam taking skills, and conducts a final practice exam session at the end of fall semester.  The ASP also offers additional, individual support for students seeking assistance with specific challenges and provides information and resources regarding bar preparation.
