The San Joaquin College of Law Student Bar Association, of which all students are members, provides an opportunity for public service and the discussion of student issues.

Each group of students in the same class year at the Law School selects two class representatives, which form the governing group of the Student Bar Association. The representatives of the first year class are selected each fall. The representatives of the upper classes and the officers are selected annually during the spring semester. Officers include the President, Vice President, Treasurer, and Secretary.

The Student Bar Association coordinates a number of annual events, including portions of the first year orientation, the new student reception, and the annual spring awards banquet.

The Student Bar Association coordinates the Outstanding Student Award Program, in which candidates are nominated by members of their respective classes based on outstanding scholarship, leadership, and contributions to the class. The Student Bar Association also coordinates the Student Mentoring Program. In addition, the Student Bar Association sponsors scholarships.
