David Shipley teaching in classroom

Almost 26 years ago, Georgia Athletic Association Professor David E. Shipley became a member of the University of Georgia School of Law community, initially serving as dean for five years before renewing his commitment to full-time teaching in 2003. In recognition of his service, several School of Law graduates have established a scholarship in his honor.

three Class of 2021 graduates

Congratulations to the Class of 2021 for posting an Ultimate Bar Passage rate of 99.48%, meaning over 99% of these graduates who sat for the bar exam within two years of graduation passed. This near perfect Ultimate Bar Passage rate and the school's position as one of the nation's best returns on investment in legal education are helping UGA Law to redefine what it means to be a great national public law school – one that offers a world-class, hands-on, purpose-driven educational experience while never surrendering its commitment to affordability.
