FlexJD Goes National
To expand access to a top-tier legal education, Northeastern Law will extend its FlexJD program to prospective students across the nation beginning in fall 2023. The hybrid, four-year FlexJD is ideally suited for well-qualified, working professionals who intend to continue full-time employment while pursuing a law degree. The ABA-approved program is delivered through flexible, remote courses, a series of required on-campus meetings and co-ops.
“Our FlexJD students have embraced self-paced and online coursework since the program launched for Boston-area students in fall 2021,” said Dean James Hackney. “This is an exciting time for working professionals who want to earn a law degree on their own schedule and take advantage of our leadership in practical legal training. The FlexJD program makes a first-rate legal education accessible to students wherever they are.”

Northeastern Law is pleased to welcome four exceptional new faculty members: Rosa Hayes, Ryan Quinn ’19, Veryl Pow and Katheryn Russell-Brown.
“Today, if we are on our knees, we need to rise up and resist regressive efforts. And optimism serves as the fuel for a continued and successful campaign to recruit others to join in. As you enter the profession, I hope that you will find ways to join in this effort, even if it is in small ways.” Ralph C. Martin II ’78 told the more than 200 JD, LLM and MLS students who graduated on May 2, 2025, in Matthews Arena.
