Welcome to Orientation Week!
14th –18th September 2026
For our new Year I students, welcome to the Norman Manley Law School and the beginning of your journey with us. To our returning Year II students, welcome back as you begin your final year of study.
Orientation Week 2026 is intended to help prepare you for the academic year ahead. Introducing you to – your courses, the expectations of the programme, our history, people and resources that will support you, and the wider NMLS experience.
It is also an opportunity to settle in, reconnect, ask questions and get involved. We encourage all students to take full advantage of the week and prepare for the year ahead.
