Student Life

Whether involved in the student bar association, editing a journal, competing on a moot court team, or providing pro bono legal services, Notre Dame law students live out the ideals of being a different kind of lawyer each day. You will be surrounded by people who seek to do good and serve others in myriad ways.

Located about 90 miles east of Chicago, Illinois, and just north of downtown South Bend, Indiana, the University of Notre Dame Law School is located in the heart of a beautiful 1,250-acre campus. Featuring graduate housing, serene lakes, trees that greet each season with new colors, and, of course, our famous Golden Dome. You have all of the resources of a large university at your fingertips.

Words like community, collegiality, and family are often used to describe the Notre Dame experience. Students, faculty, staff, and alumni form bonds that last a lifetime and transcend professional and personal experiences.
