The law school’s Office of Student and External Affairs provides programs and services designed to support and encourage the development of students throughout their law school career. This includes personal and professional counseling and guidance, as well as providing institutional support for student-run organizations and activities. This office oversees five offices within the Columbus School of Law (admissions, financial aid, career and profess, public affairs, development and alumni). The office also serves as a liaison between students and the administration. Among its many responsibilities, the office also organizes registration orientation.

The office produces an annual Announcements publication that provides information on the law school’s academic program and resources, student organizations and co-curricular activities, faculty and administration, as well as its policies and rules of conduct. The Announcements can be found on the Web at http://law.cua.edu/academic.

The Office of Student Life and Special Events is a second department within the law school that plays a large role in student daily life. This office assists student organizations with event planning, provides resources and logistical support.
