Harvard Law Announced Remote Fall Term

Post by SherlockShokralla » Wed Jun 03, 2020 8:28 pm

So, HLS just announced that the fall term will be fully remote. https://hls.harvard.edu/dept/registrar/ ... questions/

How do people applying to transfer there feel about this? I'm a little unsure now. On top of that, write-on results don't come out until third week of July so there's no way of knowing until after you've accepted. At the same time, this may set a trend for the rest of the T14s.

What's everyone's thoughts?

I personally think that almost schools will be online, and while it’s obviously unfortunate, it is what it is. Maybe they will be lenient on deferrals?

I'm really looking forward to moving to a new city and starting classes and starting online would be so sad for me. I think smaller schools may be safe enough to have in-person classes but Harvard does have a lot of students.

Georgetown announced that people will have the option to select remote classes or in person classes. No matter which you pick, there will be no in person classes after Thanksgiving Break. Finals will be take home, which is terrifying :?
