Student Bar Association (SBA)

Western New England University School of Law's SBA Officers are elected by the entire student body and representatives are elected by class from both the full-time and part-time divisions. The SBA plays a significant role in the administration of the Law School. It designates two representatives to the Faculty Meeting, who have the right to participate in and vote on most matters coming before the faculty. The SBA also designates student members of the Faculty/Student Committees, whose policy-making or advising functions include the areas of admissions, curriculum, honor code, and student petitions for exceptions to the academic standards.

The SBA also oversees and finances all of the student organizations and standing committees.
