WHY NOTRE DAME LAW SCHOOL?

One of my upperclassmen friends at Morehouse went to ND Law, and encouraged me to apply. After I was accepted, I had the opportunity to visit the law school. I quickly learned that ND Law offered everything I was looking for in a law school. The faculty is full of professors that are experts in their fields, and are readily available to meet with students during non-class times. ND Law also has an excellent career services office committed to helping students find the best legal jobs in the country. The school has a wonderful interview program that allows second-year students to interview with law firms in their home cities. Like many students, I was able to find a great job through this program. Lastly, ND Law attracts students that are friendly and bring life experiences that benefit the entire class. I can honestly say I made the best choice attending law school at Notre Dame.
