 Register for Preview Day
Admitted Student Preview Day is coming up in less than two months March 7th and 8th. The program will begin with a reception on Thursday evening, followed by a full day of informative events on Friday. Preview Day is specifically designed to answer the questions that admitted students often have. The agenda is still being finalized, but will include a mock class, a tour of the Knight Law Center, and opportunities to speak with faculty and current students.

On the morning of Thursday, March 7th. The Oregon Supreme Court will return to campus to hold live oral arguments in our building. All first-year students observe this as part of their legal research and writing class, and we are excited to offer Preview Day attendees the opportunity to attend as well. If you are interested in this opportunity, please indicate that on the Preview Day registration form. 

We strongly encourage you come to Preview Day and take advantage of this opportunity to meet our community, and more information is available on the Visit Campus section of the Admitted Student Website. If you are unable to make it to this event, you can schedule an individual visit for a different time at the link above, too.
