Spring 2015 Class Lists:

The add/drop period for the spring semester runs through Tuesday, January 20. During this period, students will be finalizing their schedules so your class roster will not be finalized until January 21. As a reminder, students may only be enrolled in non-professor permission courses or clinics through the registration process handled by the Office of the Registrar. If you wish to make any adjustments to your enrollment limits, please contact Assistant Deans Sally McCarthy or Sarah Hulsey (J.D. Program), or Director Sarah Kelly (Graduate Programs).

Spring 2015 Exam Formats:

Please note that your exam format (take-home or in-class exams) have been published to students since April 2014. Therefore, your exam format may not be changed, except for extraordinary cause, and must first be approved by the Associate Dean for J.D. or Graduate Programs.

Faculty must choose one of the following six exam options for an in-class blind-graded exam to be administered by the Office of the Registrar:

1.      Open book with access to anything short of another person

2.      Open book with access to the hard drive, no access to Internet

3.      Open book, no electronic materials or access to Internet (printed materials in hard copy permitted)

4.      Closed book, no laptops (Scantron or answers on exam questions)

5.      Closed book, with laptops (no access to hard drive or Internet)

6.      Limited book with supplement, no access to other materials, hard drive, or Internet (supplement provided in hard copy along with exam questions).

If you have any questions, please contact our Registrar, Denise Sangster, at [email-masked]<mailto:[email-masked]> or 202-662-9238.
