Introduction
Hofstra Law’s JD Program provides an education rich in both the theory and skills needed to produce outstanding lawyers.
Our students have long been involved in clinical programs, fellowships, externships and pro bono opportunities that give them real attorney experience — practicing alongside veteran lawyers — before they’ve graduated.
Hofstra Law offers a wide and diverse range of courses.
The traditional JD Program consists of at least 87 credit-hours. The first year consists of 8 required courses over two semesters.
