By the Numbers
- We’re the only school in the country that has earned top 20 rankings in each of the legal skills specialties for four years running.
- Many of the our top 20-ranked clinics offer our students a chance to argue before a judge—great real-world courtroom experience.
- Our National Trial Team students have won the New England championships of one of the two major national trial competitions 29 times in 34 years, a testament to the power of our top-15 ranked Trial Advocacy program.
Our students regularly make national news for taking on complex legal matters and beating experienced attorneys along the way—two recent examples are the Intellectual Property Clinic students who successfully took on the lawyers at Monster Energy Drink and Nautica. Immigration Clinic students won a major precedent-setting victory in an appeal before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit.
