Corrections to the Preliminary Schedule:
*Money Laundering is 3 credits (not 2 credits).
*The Clinical page of the schedule incorrectly listed the
work expectations for Summer clinical programs instead of
Fall programs. The correct expectations are as follows: "Students
are expected to put in a minimum of 224 hours (an average
of 16 hours a week for 14 weeks) for 4 hours of credit, a
minimum of 168 hours (an average of 12 hours a week for 14
weeks) for 3 hours of credit, and a minimum of 112 hours (an
average of 8 hours a week for 14 weeks) for 2 hours of credit."

Dean's Certificate for Illinois Bar Exam. We will mail
a Dean's Certificate to the Illinois bar examiners for every

of all graduation requirements. We compile the list of graduating
students from the list of those who submitted Applications
for Graduation listing Spring 2005 as their final semester.
Bar Exams in Other Jurisdictions. If you plan to take
a bar exam outside of Illinois, you should provide the Registrar
with appropriate forms for the Law School to complete as soon
as possible.
