Dayton Law Top 3 in Job Numbers

The University of Dayton School of Law is among the top three law schools in Ohio when it comes to an important employment measurement.

Job numbers for the Class of 2016 show 72.8% of graduates got full-time, long-term, bar required or J.D. advantage jobs in the 10 months after graduation. That number puts Dayton Law third among the 10 law schools in the Ohio area, according to the Employment Summary reports released to the American Bar Association.

The numbers show the priority the School of Law puts on preparing students for success in the job market.

“These job numbers reflect employers’ respect for the quality of our students and the work they have done here at the School of Law,” says Dean Andrew Strauss. “Of course this is only the beginning of what I’m sure will be many illustrious careers.”

While at Dayton Law, students receive intensive, individual attention thanks to the experienced staff in our Career Services Office. They work alongside our students from their first year to graduation and beyond to help them explore all options available and ultimately compete successfully for the positions right for them.

The numbers show a Dayton Law degree prepares students to go anywhere. More than a third of those from the Class of 2016 got jobs outside Ohio.
