UT Law named a top law school by Princeton Review

The University of Tennessee College of Law is one of the nation’s outstanding law schools, according to the Princeton Review’s annual guide of “The Best 172 Law Schools.”

The Princeton Review profiles UT Law and other top law schools with information and ratings about academic programs, student life, admissions, selectivity, and career placement services. The publication recognizes UT Law’s “great education at an affordable price.”

“Students find the program ‘mentally stimulating’ and leave confident in their ‘abilities to practice law after graduation.’ The university boasts ‘small class sizes,’ which make ‘learning more personable and focused,’” the Review states about UT Law. “Students find the Career Center ‘very helpful.’ ‘The school did a wonderful job of preparing me for practice, and they were invaluable in the job search process,’ notes one student.”

Additionally, the Review also highlights UT Law’s “top notch” faculty and staff, “very accessible and open” administration, and “great sense of community.” One student notes, “The staff, faculty, and students all provide a collegial atmosphere which facilitates outstanding legal scholarship.”

The Princeton Review does not rank the law schools in the book from one to 172, or name one law school best overall. This year’s guide was based on 19,400 responses from students at the 172 law schools, who were asked questions about their school’s academics, student body, and campus life, as well as about themselves and their career plans.
