School of Law

The University of San Diego School of Law is a center of academic excellence focused on preparing its students for legal practice in the new century. One of the most selective law schools in the country, the School of Law's nationally recognized faculty create a demanding, yet welcoming environment that emphasizes individualized education. The University of San Diego School of Law is one of only 80 law schools in the country to have a chapter of The Order of the Coif, the most distinguished rank of American law schools. We are accredited by the American Bar Association and are a member of the Association of American Law Schools. Our long-standing tradition of quality graduate legal education and the personal attention that our students receive — from the time they apply until graduation — set our program apart. In addition to the intellectual pursuits available at the School of Law, the ideal Southern California climate and location of the beautiful campus provide students with a wide range of other opportunities.
