Disability Resource Center
The Disability Resource Center (DRC) is responsible for providing students with disabilities the necessary support to succeed in their education and participate in campus life. All FIU Law students with disabilities can contact the DRC to discuss accommodations.
Advising
FIU Law provides guidance to all current FIU Law students on course selection, graduation requirements and academic standards. Advising starts with orientation, where incoming students will be given an overview of the curriculum.
All first-year students will have small-group advising sessions in the spring. Advanced-standing and transfer students will have small-group sessions in the fall and spring of their first year. We also provide assistance with submitting bar applications.
All current FIU Law students are encouraged to make an appointment with Director Alex Ravelo for individualized academic advising. Please note that Director Ravelo provides advising to current FIU Law students only.
