Welcome to the 2024 Fall Semester! Classes begin on Monday, August 19.
UPCOMING EVENTS
Law School Resources Open House: Monday, August 19; 12:00pm to 1:00pm: During Orientation you learned about all the great resources here at UCI Law. Now we want to make sure you know where to find these resources. Join us on the first day of classes for a progressive Open House. Start by picking up a game board on the fourth floor of MPAA at Student Financial Services and Admissions in MPAA 410. Visit the offices listed on the game board to collect stamps. Once you've gathered all the stamps, head to the courtyard for a pizza lunch. Snacks, cold brew, and UCI Law swag will be available along the way, while supplies last! This Open House is designed to help new students find their way around the Law School, but we are always happy to see returning students and all are invited to attend!
Student Involvement Fair at UCI Law: Thursday, August 22; Law Courtyard; 12:00pm to 1:00pm: Meet representatives from various student groups and discover how to get involved in this amazing community!
