Academic Success Program
Academic Success Through Comprehensive Support
The Academic Success Program ("ASP") is the School of Law's comprehensive program to support all students in maximizing their personal academic success in law school.
The Academic Success faculty welcome incoming first-year students during the 1L Orientation experience and the first-semester skills programs. Instruction covers a wide range of skills essential for law school success, including professional goal-setting, case reading and briefing, note-taking and outlining, and exam preparation.
Support for students at UDSL does not stop after the initial transition to law school. Students may also take advantage of additional Academic Success courses in the second semester and beyond, depending upon need.
The Director of Academic Success and other members of the ASP faculty are available to meet with any student individually to discuss strategies for optimizing productivity and time management, customizing study techniques, and improving academic performance. Appointments are available both online and in Keller Hall.

The Academic Success Program was the most important law school 'class' I ever had. It taught me how to be a successful law student, and that set the stage for everything else.
