Drexel University College of Law opened in August 2006 as the most recent addition to a university nationally recognized for its innovations in technology and hands-on education. Through its mission of 9 Knowledge, Skill, Duty, 9 students will be able to integrate traditional legal education with practical experience and skills training. Students also will assist in meeting the unmet legal needs of underserved populations in our community through the schoolâ??s pro bono requirement.

The College of Law is innovative in a number of respects. Classes are organized in a quarter (rather than semester) system, allowing students and faculty the most flexibility in scheduling. Classes are offered year-round by outstanding full-time professors as well as experienced practitioners. First-year classes are small, with sixty to seventy students per section. The year-long legal methods course is comprehensive and taught by tenure-track professors. The integration of legal knowledge, skill development, and professionalism begins in the studentâ??s first year of law study.

Beginning in the second year, students will have the opportunity to gain valuable experience in law practice through a co-op experience. In co-op, students will spend two quarters in the field working in a variety of settings, including law firms, judgesâ?? chambers, in-house counsel offices, and public service organizations. At the same time, students will take a co-op seminar that will enrich the overall field experience and enhance the studentsâ?? research, writing, and oral presentation skills.

At the outset, Drexel College of Law is offering three concentrations: health law, intellectual property, and entrepreneurial business. The concentrations prepare law graduates for lawyering in an increasingly technological world and complement the other colleges and schools at Drexel University. The full range of legal subjects is taught, allowing students to excel in any area of the law.

In addition to acquiring knowledge of the law and gaining skills necessary for practice, Drexel law students understand the importance of providing pro bono service to underserved populations. Every student is required to fulfill a certain number of service hours before graduation, which will allow them to assist needy clients while honing their legal skills.

The inaugural class at DrexelUniversity has median LSAT of 156 and a median GPA of 3.4. The class is forty-five percent male and fifty-five percent female. Students of color make up twenty-one percent of the class.

In January 2007 the law school moved into a state-of-the art facility in the heart of University City. Drexel University is conveniently located within blocks of local transportation and regional train service.

Note: Drexel University is fully informed as to the Standards and Rules of Procedure for the Approval of Law Schools by the American Bar Association. The Administration of the University and the Collegeof Law are determined to devote all necessary resources and in other respects to take all necessary steps to present a program of legal education that will qualify for approval by the American Bar Association. The Collegeof Law makes no representation as to any applicant that it will be approved by the American Bar Association prior to the graduation of any matriculating student.
