We offer students the chance to start classes full-time or part-time in the fall, or full-time classes beginning in spring. Students have the flexibility to take classes during the day or evening, as best suits your schedule.
South Texas College of Law Houston encourages you to take advantage of our many co-curricular and extracurricular opportunities while pursuing your legal studies. You may study abroad, in a number of countries, for a month or a semester. You can challenge yourself to participate in the best advocacy program in the country or direct your educational focus through the Frank Evans Center for Conflict Resolution or the Transactional Practice Center. You can work with real clients, handling real cases for those most in need in our community, through the Randall O. Sorrels Legal Clinics.
