New ABA Data Lists SLU LAW Grads in Top 15 for Bar Passage
In February 2020, the American Bar Association Section of Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar released a comprehensive set of data on bar passage outcomes for ABA-approved law schools.
The new data measures the number of 2017 law graduates who sat for a bar exam and passed it within two years of graduation.
Saint Louis University School of Law had a passage rate of 97.96% while the national average was 89.5%. This puts SLU LAW at 14 out of the 198 U.S. law schools, coming in just behind Harvard and New York Law and just above Cornell University.
SLU LAW's Academic Resource Center, anchored by Professor Antonia Miceli, provides students with comprehensive bar examination support. The ARC assists students from the first day of classes and continues for alumni through bar prep before and after graduation.
