The School of Law is a professional school, and each student is considered a representative of both the legal profession and Campbell University. The dress and grooming of all students should therefore reflect each student's status as a representative.

While the law school does not have a written, detailed dress code, law students are expected to dress appropriately while in the law school. The general standard of "appropriateness" is: Dress in a manner expected of professional students aspiring to be lawyers. It is not unusual for appellate justices and judges, officers of bar associations, lawyers, and government leaders to visit the law school. Law students set a professional standard by dressing in a modest and neat manner both in class and in all law school areas.

At some events, for example the Professionalism Lecture Series during the first year of law school and the performance sections of Trial Advocacy courses in later years, students are required attend in professional dress - in other words, "courtroom attire," as if they were appearing in court.
