To afford all admitted first year law students a small class experience in one of their core subjects their first semester, Rutgers Law School is delighted to announce the continuation of the Jump Start Summer Class.

This year's class will be Contracts with Board of Governors Distinguished Professor of Law Dennis Patterson. 

Starting-Wednesday, June 19-July 31:
CONTRACTS Section 3- Prof. Patterson, MTWTh 5:30-7:30PM (FINAL EXAM-Aug 7-8

The benefits of the program include learning Contracts in a smaller class environment with real lawyering assignments, individual feedback, as well as traditional classroom discussion. Then, rather than taking 14 credits in the Fall, you will only have to take 10 credits in the Fall. Students have more time to acclimate themselves to the vigor of law school. Many of our current top law students availed themselves of this opportunity; and Jump Start students tend to have higher academic records. Click for summer class testimonials.
