Summer Before You Start

We have partnered with AccessLex Institute®, the largest nonprofit organization focusing on access, affordability, and the value of legal education, to bring you JDEdge by AccessLexSM, a fully online asynchronous program, designed specifically for rising 1Ls.  Available at no cost to you or our law school, the lessons in JDEdge will provide you with a solid foundation for the critical skills you will need to succeed as a law student.
