Participation in any of the school-sponsored interscholastic moot court competitions (e.g., National or NAAC) is by invitation only. All such competitions require writing an appellate brief and preparing and presenting oral argument. Applications for the national team are accepted in the Spring, for the following Fall. The regional rounds of that competition are in November and the National rounds are in late January or early February. Applications for the NAAC competition are accepted in the Spring for the following Spring. The regional rounds for NAAC are normally in February and the National rounds are in April. Contact the faculty advisors for more information. If the faculty advisor to a moot court competition certifies that by participating in it a student has acquired the equivalent skills as those taught in Legal Research and Writing IV, the student may obtain a waiver of the Legal Research and Writing IV requirement. Students participating in an interscholastic competition that lacks a faculty advisor under the auspices of the Moot Court Council do not receive academic credit for their endeavors.
