ForewordAs Editors of this publication, we continue to try to provide to both prelaw advisors and prelaw studentsthe most current and useful information possible. In the spring of this year we conducted our annualsurvey of ABA accredited law schools in the United States in order to update these lists of law schoolacademic programs, clinical programs, available scholarships, admission policies and other information.Two notes, both caveats, should be added here. First, this is really a reference book, a ready reference,we hope. Individual schools should be contacted for more information. Second, both advisors andstudents should be cautious when selecting a law school on the basis of one or just a few factors suchas specialized programs, joint-degree programs, salary ranges, student organizations, etc. For the mostpart, a legal education is a general education in law and specialization occurs after law school. Applicantsshould look at the total program presented by a law school and see which school in its totality seems tobest meet their needs.We hope that users of this book will also recognize that these lists are compiled from information receivedfrom law schools and that they are, to coin a phrase, “subject to change without notice.”A very special thank you is owed to Terry Wilkerson who supervised this project this year. This book couldnot have been completed without her efforts. The editors are greatly appreciative of her abilities and gracethroughout this project.Please note that the authors do not endorse, support or acknowledge the effectiveness or utility of anycommercial test preparation or advising program.Edward M.

Law School Academic ProgramsSome law schools offer graduate work in a general field of law while others have graduate programs in a specific area of the law. Anumber of law schools have joint degree programs whereby a student may combine his/her legal studies with course work in anotherdiscipline. In these cases some of the credits from the law courses will count toward the graduate degree in the other discipline whilesome of the graduate work will fulfill a part of the law degree. When these programs are available the individual will generally be ableto complete the two degrees in a year less than if they were taken separately. A large number of law schools give special emphasis tocertain areas of the law but not enough work to warrant a graduate program.The information on the following pages has been compiled over time and is updated annually from the responses to a questionnairesubmitted to the law schools by Dean Edward Stern of Boston University and Dr. Gerald Wilson of Duke University. Again thanks aredue to Ms. Rita Ralston, who shepherded this year’s project from beginning to end.Many schools change their programs from one year to another. After finding the special program in which a student is interested,attention should be given to the website and/or the most recent bulletin of that school. Several schools have indicated that a studentmight be able to work out another joint degree program on an individual basis.Two notes may be helpful to the reader:First, when there is an asterisk (*) beside a school, the information came from the ABA · LSAC Official Guide to ABA-ApprovedLaw Schools rather than from a response to the Stern/Wilson Survey.Second, when two asterisks (**) appear beside a school, the entry applies to graduates of foreign law schools only.12017 NAPLA Book of Lists.indb 14/13/17 9:10 AM
