University of Virginia School of Law

A world-renowned training ground for distinguished lawyers and public servants

Consistently ranked among the top law schools in the nation, Virginia has educated generations of lawyers, instilling in them a commitment to leadership, integrity and community service. Virginia is justly famous for its collegial environment that bonds students and faculty, and student satisfaction is consistently cited as among the highest in American law schools. At Virginia, law students share

their experiences in a cooperative spirit, both in and out of the classroom, and build a network that lasts well beyond their three years here. General Information
