Comprehensive Curriculum Program (CCP)

We want all New York Law School students to be challenged and successful.  Although students enter the Law School with a range of academic backgrounds and experiences, there is no effective way to predict an individual student's law school achievement until that student begins to perform in law school.  We provide assistance to those who rank in the bottom 25% of the class to enhance their possibilities for success in law school, on the bar examination, and in practice.  Through a combination of required courses and a guided approach for selecting electives, students in the Comprehensive Curriculum Program will focus on strengthening skills, including reading, listening, writing, and speaking carefully and meticulously; retaining fully and accurately what is read and heard; comprehending cases, statutes, and other legal materials; and analyzing facts in relation to legal materials with disciplined creativity.
