An Entrepreneurial Culture At Chicago-Kent, there are many ways to tailor your legal education to your professional goals. Scheduling after the first year is flexible. We make it convenient for you to attend guest lectures and seminars that interest you, and to pursue externships, clerkships and other practice opportunities in environments in which you can acquire whatever specialized skills you need. Change from day to evening studies and from full- to part-time status as your circumstances dictate. Take summers off, study abroad or study year-round—whatever plan best moves you toward your goals.

That’s why we provide you with a wealth of tools to succeed, from academic support and mentoring programs to professional preparation and planning.
