The track record of our older graduates has been very positive for them and the school. At Western State, our full-time faculty teaches all required classes and most of the elective courses in both the day and evening divisions. We continue to commit resources to our part-time division to make it the finest in Southern California. This program is designed to help students master the skills needed to succeed in law school. ASEP offers workshops and tutorials to improve students' writing, legal analysis, and organizational skills.
Students also get experience in exam writing and preparation.
Our Skills Center has eight rooms for large and small group tutoring. Extracurricular activities can enrich one's law school experience, provided that one does not let them interfere with one's studies, which demand considerable time and attention. Becoming an active member of the law school community by joining student organizations has proven to be both intellectually and personally rewarding for many students. The Western State student body is close-knit and mutually supportive, a definite plus in the competitive law school atmosphere. At Western State, competition breeds mutual respect while creating an environment that fosters deep friendships.
