Practice Makes Perfect. It Also Makes Better Lawyers.

At the University of Dayton School of Law, we prepare our graduates to be lawyers who can solve problems, whether they are the problems of a person, a family, an organization or even society at large. By equally applying a broad base of legal knowledge, extensive practical experience and professional values to the cause of helping others, our graduates have the ability to distinguish themselves in their careers while making a real impact upon the world.

We pride ourselves on creating well-rounded lawyers immersed in all aspects of the law. At Dayton Law, you will be exposed to the challenging classroom dialogues found throughout the nation's top law schools. You also will be expected to apply your classroom knowledge to real-world problems through capstone courses, externships and live-client clinics. It is this balance of theory and practice that gives our graduates uncommon knowledge and rare distinction.

Another noticeable difference is our emphasis on the personal touch. We understand that every student has unique needs, talents and goals. It's why we maintain small class sizes and why one-on-one instruction, guidance and in-depth personal, academic, bar and career counseling from faculty and administrators are the norm, not the exception, at Dayton Law.

Our academic calendar is designed to provide students a more flexible academic calendar. That means you can graduate in two years. Or start your legal studies early under our summer-start option.

If you are ready for a challenging legal education that provides you with an opportunity to change your life — along with the lives of countless others — we are ready to be your partner.
