J.D. Course Descriptions
Not all courses described will be offered during any one academic year. Students should consult draft semester schedules posted on our website, and ultimately, registration information in Course Wizard to select courses that reflect their interests and that will allow them to meet graduation requirements.
Students are prohibited from registering for a distance learning instructional opportunity if they have taken or are currently taking the in-person version of an instructional opportunity as indicated in the course description. Students are prohibited from registering for the in-person version of an instructional opportunity if they have taken or are currently taking the corresponding distance learning instructional opportunity.
If a course has prerequisites or corequisites those are listed as part of the course description. Prerequisites and corequisites cannot be waived. Students are responsible for ensuring they have taken the prerequisites for any course or are enrolled in the corequisites for any course. Failure to have taken prerequisites and corequisites may result in involuntary withdrawal from a course, with a concomitant loss of credits and possible delay of graduation.
Note: A student has completed a prerequisite if his or her record shows any grade (A through F or P/F) in the NSU system. Students who have not yet received a grade will be treated as completing a course only if the professor certifies to Student Services that the student has satisfied all course requirements other than the exam or final paper/project.
