From Semester 1 2020, the online delivery mode for all compulsory courses in the ANU College of Law Juris Doctor will be phased out. From Semester 1 2024, all compulsory courses in the ANU College of Law Juris Doctor will be delivered on-campus only. Students will then benefit from the on-campus postgraduate student experience and become part of our vibrant campus community.

Some elective courses in the Juris Doctor will remain available online. In the latter years of their degree, students may elect to study some of their courses online (subject to the availability of online elective courses).

Those studying part-time will need to maintain a load of at least two courses per semester in order to have a choice of studying online or on campus.  

The schedule of when the online delivery of compulsory courses will cease is as follows:
