Discover how the University of Georgia School of Law is redefining what it means to be a great national public institution:

Over half of our students receive merit scholarships, and all enjoy the low cost of living in Athens. Students leave the School of Law with a wealth of opportunities and low debt.

 

Accomplished Faculty

Our professors combine expertise with dedication. They draw on experience as U.S. Supreme Court clerks, trial and corporate attorneys and Fulbright scholars in the classroom. An open door policy is the norm; faculty members are always happy to answer questions and offer career advice to individual students.

 

Talented Students

The University of Georgia School of Law is one of the most selective law schools in the nation. Our students have outstanding academic records and excellent LSAT scores.

Experiential Learning and Study Abroad

Our law school offers local, regional and international opportunities for hands-on experience and community service.

 

Advocacy Programs

The School of Law's winning moot court and mock trial programs give students a chance to develop their legal skills in court proceedings that are often judged by the state and nation's leading attorneys, judges and justices.
