Visit With Us
Cumberland School of Law welcomes visitors all year long, on campus and virtually. We look forward to visiting with you soon.
“Visiting” in the south means more than just taking a trip somewhere, it can also mean to sit down and have a chat. At Cumberland School of Law, we welcome visitors all year long, on campus or virtually.
We invite you to “visit” with us using the method you prefer. Touring campus; sitting in on a law school class; talking with current students, admissions officers, and faculty—all will help you establish a genuine sense of place and experience.
Reservations for a visit are recommended, and required during the pandemic, to ensure that we are able to tailor your visit to your interests and needs.
In addition to your future visit, we hope the resources provided here will be helpful as you decide where to pursue your law degree. If you have any questions, or are ready to schedule your visit, we encourage you to contact our Office of Admission.
Prelaw societies, student organizations, or undergraduate institutions interested in planning a day visit, mini open house, or Zoom information session for your group can make arrangements by contacting the Office of Admission.
Dean Corky Strickland invites you to schedule a visit, on campus or virtually, to help you learn more of what Cumberland School of Law is all about.
Student Bar Association President Tyler Flowers invites you to connect with the Office of Admission to schedule a tour or to ask questions about the admission process.
