Academic excellence + outstanding job prospects
The University of Tulsa College of Law delivers an academically rigorous and professionally impactful JD program. TU Law is a Top 100 U.S. law school and 10th in the nation for employment 10 months after graduation in long-term, full-time bar-licensed or JD advantage positions (U.S. News & World Report -- Best Law Schools 2020). We are also a Top 5 Best Value private law school and a Top 25 Best Value law school among both public and private institutions (preLaw 2019).
Great things about the college are the small class size and the low student-to-faculty ratio. I was able to create a personal relationship with a professor who helped me to obtain my externship. Dalton Downing, JD '18
Admission
Admission to TU Law is conducted on a rolling basis with year-round starts: in the fall, spring and summer. In whichever term you intend to begin, be sure to apply for one of our application-fee waivers.
I realized early that laws are dormant until a person enforces & interprets them for people. It was then that I realized I wanted to be the voice of those who needed help with their legal rights. Aisosa Arhunmwunde, JD '18
Experiential learning
TU Law offers a welcoming atmosphere in which students become practice-ready. In addition to our intellectually rich and engaging courses, you will find many experiential learning opportunities that appeal to people with diverse talents, backgrounds and interests.
My environmental law and policy externship in Austin, Texas, exceeded my expectations. It helped me wrap up my legal education in a practical and worthwhile experience. Mitchell Lovett, JD '19
