The program opens Sunday, June 15, with an evening introductory meeting and welcoming reception for participants and faculty. First-session classes run from June 16 through July 4. The second session runs from July 7 through July 25. To give participants extra time to explore Ireland and Europe, there are no classes on the following Fridays: June 20, June 27, July 11, and July 18.
The fees for the program total $4,600 (including a non-refundable $100 application fee). This charge covers tuition ($3,000 for up to six credit hours), accommodations, computer access, and activities.
Students are responsible for making their own travel arrangements and obtaining their assigned textbooks in their home countries before their departure for Galway. Passports are required for travel to Ireland and are the responsibility of each student. Visas are not required for United States citizens traveling to Ireland.
Participants should contact the financial aid officer at their own law school to determine eligibility for financial aid.
