Academic Catalog and Student Handbook

Charleston School of Law’s Catalog and Student Handbook is the official document of record concerning academic policies and regulations.

Students are responsible for becoming familiar with the information presented in the Catalog and Student Handbook and for knowing and observing all policies and procedures therein.

Registration at the School of Law assumes the students’ acceptance of all published regulations, including those which appear in this online Catalog and Student Handbook, as well as any updates, and all others as applicable in any official announcement.

Disclaimer: This Catalog is not a contract. Charleston School of Law expressly reserves the right to change tuition, fees, programs of study, academic requirements (including those required for degrees), lecturers, teaching staff, the announced academic calendar, and other matters described in this Catalog with reasonable prior notice, and in accordance with established procedures.

Please note that the information in this Catalog and Student Handbook is not valid throughout an entire program of study.

The Law School may need to alter program requirements before the start of any enrollment period. As noted, any changes will be published.

In an emergency, it may be necessary to adjust the academic calendar, move classes online, or take other measures to ensure educational continuity.

Such emergencies may be of a public health nature, a weather-related event, such as flooding, that necessitates the closure of the Law School building, or another condition that makes it unsafe or impractical to hold classes as scheduled on campus.

If adjustments are necessary, Charleston School of Law will work to ensure students can interact with professors, student services, and one another, even if only remotely.
