Add/Drop Period. The initial pre-registration period for Fall 2014 classes has closed. The registration system reopened on Tuesday, May 6, at 9:00am for students to see what classes they were admitted into, and to make adjustments to their schedules. If you did not register during the initial pre-registration period, you may do so starting Tuesday, May 6. You may continue to make adjustments to your schedule until the end of the Fall add/drop period on Monday, September 8, at 11:50pm.

•Schedule Changes. The following changes have been made to the Fall 2014 class schedule:

Alternative Dispute ResolutionMediation and Negotiations: The listings for these courses initially indicated that students who had taken the Mediation and Other ADR Procedures Clinic could not take these courses. We have eliminated that restriction - if you have taken the Clinic, you may take for these courses.

Critical Legal Studies: This class has been canceled.

Entrepreneurship Law: The final schedule indicated that, if you registered for this class, you were required to register for a "tethered" section of Legal Writing 3 as well. We have eliminated that restriction - you may register for the "tethered" Legal Writing 3 section if you wish, but you are not required to do so.

Land Use: This class has been canceled.

Tax Procedure: This class has been canceled.

•Graduating Students: Reduced Loads and Tuition Discounts. Students graduating at the end of the Fall 2014 semester who need fewer than the minimum number of hours to graduate may take fewer credits without special permission. In addition, if you will be graduating at the end of the Fall 2014 semester, and will be taking more than the 87 credits required to graduate, you may receive a 50% discount on each credit you take over the required 87 credits. If this affects you, please contct me by email no later than the end of the second week of the Fall semester, and I will arrange for the credit to be applied to your account.
