The Big Ten commissioner says, "The legal education I received at Notre Dame, and more the life education I received at Notre Dame, still plays a key role in my everyday life, not only as a person but as a business executive and as a lawyer."
Go Anywhere With An NDLS Degree
Notre Dame Law School is truly a national law school. In fact, recent employment data from the American Bar Association suggest that our alumni are more widely dispersed than those from any other law school. The top three states where Notre Dame Law graduates are employed – Illinois, California, and New York – extend from coast to coast. This geographic diversity benefits students as they connect with an alumni network and opportunities that stretch across the map.

Alumni Network
One of the benefits of earning a degree from Notre Dame Law School is that graduates become members of one of the world’s most vibrant alumni communities. Notre Dame Lawyers connect with each other throughout the year at events on campus and through Notre Dame Lawyer Committees that are active in more than 30 major cities across the country. These loyal alumni are eager to assist students and new graduates with networking and mentorship as they start their careers.

Support For Public Interest Careers
