NOTICE REGARDING SUFFOLK UNIVERSITY LAW SCHOOL RULES, REGULATIONS AND POLICIES 2024-2025

This publication was compiled by the Law School Student Affairs Office during August 2024, using the versions of the Rules, Regulations and Policies available at that time. Rules, Regulations and Policies may be changed throughout the academic year. Accordingly, please note that the contents of this book are subject to change at the discretion of the Law School. We reserve the right to alter the policies and information contained in this book. Please see the Suffolk University Law School Website for any changes. It is incumbent upon each enrolled student at the Law School to thoroughly read this publication, and to be especially familiar with the contents of the Policies, Rules and Regulations which are contained herein. In certain circumstances, Rules, Regulations and Policies may differ for students enrolled in the LLM program, the SJD program, the MSLL program or those visiting Suffolk as part of an International Exchange Program. For more information, please see the Office of Graduate and International Programs. Some or all instruction for all or part of Academic Year may be delivered remotely. Tuition and mandatory fees have been set regardless of the method of instruction and will not be refunded in the event instruction occurs remotely for any part of the Academic Year. Suffolk University assumes no liability for the delay or failure in providing educational or other services or facilities due to causes beyond its reasonable control. Causes include, but are not limited to power failure, fire, strikes by University employees or others, damage by natural elements, public health crises, and acts of public authorities. The University will, however, exert reasonable efforts, when it judges them to be appropriate, to provide comparable services, facilities, or performance; but its inability or failure to do so shall not subject the University to liability. Every attempt will be made to ensure that students can fulfill their programs of study in a timely manner.
