Third Year: Complete the second year JD program.

Fourth Year: Complete the the remaining required core department and field courses and one semester of field instruction and the final semester of the J.D. program in the spring.

The law school gives credit for the third semester in the School of Social Work, while the latter recognizes law courses as substitutions for a one-semester practice course, special topics courses, a third semester of social policy and one semester of field instruction (for which a clinical law semester is substituted).
