We're not like other law schools.
Since we opened our doors, we’ve been raising the bar. We offer traditional classes as challenging as you’ll find at any law school. And we offer you opportunities to gain firsthand experience in legal practice and the skills and savvy that come with it. In 2011, National Jurist Magazine ranked us the #10 law school in the nation for our experiential learning opportunities.
Many of our classes combine lectures, simulations and other experiential learning opportunities. You’ll also be able to gain hands-on experience through our co-op clinical, pro bono and trial advocacy programs, acquiring skills along the way. Our co-op partners include Top 100 law firms, federal judges, Fortune 500 companies and leading public interest organizations. Our students have worked on death-penalty cases, helped inventors secure patents, prepared witnesses for trial and argued cases in the U.S. Courts of Appeals.
Our uncommonly energetic faculty are distinguished scholars and accomplished practitioners with a fascinating range of interests and accomplishments. They’ll include you in cutting-edge research and deep theoretical debate.
We are located in one of the nation’s most vibrant - and best-established - legal communities, and we’ll help you forge relationships with some of its most dynamic attorneys and jurists. Right here on campus, our faculty and more than 20 student-driven organizations are constantly organizing activities, conducting research, hosting events, publishing their work and otherwise raising the bar.
Ours is a tight-knit, supportive community. Professors know students by name as well as by face. Classmates collaborate – with each other and with faculty.
Don’t just take our word for it: explore our website in detail, schedule a visit today to meet our faculty and students, contact us with any questions and – by all means – apply!
