The college operates on a semester basis. The normal school year consist of two sixteen(16)-week semesters and a ten (10) week summer session. The fall semester commences in September, the spring semester in January, and the summer session in June.

A wide variety of classes are offered. Some students take fewer classes during the regular school semesters and use our summer session as an opportunity to obtain their required yearly minimum number of units. The summer session lasts ten(10) weeks.

Orientation session are mandatory for all entering students and are held in three sessions which are in May, August, and December. These sessions are of importance to the entering student because they will receive valuable guidance and information from the administration as well as have a tour of the facilities. At that time the entering student will receive his/her's orientation handbook which is a valuable tool to assist the student through their law school education. The entering student will meet the key administration staff personnel, faculty members and other American College of Law' student members and alumni. These sessions were devised to help every entering student to handle his or her transition into law school and law study.
