Pre-Orientation
Home  /  Orientation  /  Pre-Orientation

 

What is Pre-Orientation about?

 

  • To provide incoming law students with a variety of events throughout the summer that facilitate socializing against the backdrop of Miami’s various areas and environments.
  • To allow incoming law students the opportunity to meet current students and committee members to ease them into this new chapter of their life and ask questions in casual and comfortable settings.
  • To foster an atmosphere of belonging, teamwork and camaraderie and expunge any negative connotations of law school politics.
  • And as always, to relax, have fun and enjoy great company in a great city!

Recommended Attire
There is no dress code for Orientation. Comfortable shoes are strongly suggested because you will be doing a lot of walking. It likely will be hot outside and cool in the air conditioned rooms, so dress appropriately for the heat and a jacket or sweater for indoors. 

Some students wear shorts, jeans, skirts or summer dress. Miami is typically casual though you want to remember that you are entering a professional school rather than heading to the beach.

The Dean's Dinner at the Biltmore Hotel is dressier - cocktail attire.
