Resources and Support

Legal education and preparing for the bar exam are much more than an intellectual hurdle. Managing the stress of studying is essential, as is managing the financial and other burdens of daily life.  The Bar and Academic Success team is here to help; we can work with you to find resources you need or just listen to your situation. 

Below are some supplemental resources that you might find useful. Regardless of where you are in your bar prep journey, please don't go it alone. Reach out to a friend, counselor, trusted colleague or family member.

A good place to start is with University of Arizona Law's Student Resources web page. You will find information on accommodations, tutoring, writing center resources, and counseling. The University of Arizona's Counseling and Psychological Services Office offers assistance to students to cope with personal and mental health issues. Other campus and community resources are found on this page.

Rogers College of Law is delighted to partner with leading legal education nonprofit, AccessLex Institute, to provide our graduates with its cutting-edge bar preparation course at no cost to you. Additionally, all alumni have the opportunity to enroll in a Helix Bar Review by AccessLex course at a significantly reduced rate, making this valuable resource accessible to the entire Arizona Law community.

Other highlights include:
