Wilmington University School of Law offers a structured yet flexible curriculum to teach the essential skills and theory we believe all lawyers should know. By requiring the first two years of courses, including three semesters of legal research and writing, all students will learn to read, write, think, and analyze like a lawyer.

Our curricular design ensures student access to all bar-tested subjects. This eliminates the stress of choosing between bar-tested subjects or interesting electives. The third year is dedicated to students’ exploration of specific areas of the law through electives, expansion of their knowledge on the Delaware bar exam subjects, and experience of different types of legal work through externships. Electives will be taught by practitioners who are experts. This also provides students with a greater connection to the Delaware legal community and beyond.

Based at the University's Brandywine location, the three-year, full-time day program focuses on full-time, in-person instruction during the first and second year, allowing students the flexibility to engage in experiential learning starting in their fourth semester. After completing the required courses, students explore other areas of the law through a combination of elective classes and externships within the greater Wilmington legal community and beyond.
