New York state is home to some of the best Law Schools in the world. Here is a list of the best ones.

BY TAL RAPPLEYEA

2. CORNELL LAW SCHOOL
ITHACA, NEW YORK
• With enrollment of only 180
students, Cornell’s outstanding
faculty is focused on teaching small
classes for a more personal touch.
• The only real negative of Cornell’s
law program is that there aren’t
enough classes offered.
• Cornell has dealt with this by
allowing law students take courses
from the graduate departments.
• Located in Ithaca, NY in the Finger
Lake region the location, and name
alone make Cornell a top choice for
students.

3. BROOKLYN LAW SCHOOL
BROOKLYN, NEW YORK
• 100 years old and over 16,000
alumni.
• Located in the heart of Brooklyn
Heights, Brooklyn Law is known for
it’s focus on teaching practical skills
and not just academic law skills.
• Ranking among the top 100 law
schools in the nation, respectively
at 61st
• The emphasis on court externships,
moot court and other various skills
that focus upon the practice of law
versus the theoretical study of law.

4. YESHIVA UNIVERSITY
NEW YORK, NEW YORK
• The University’s law school only
founded in the late 1980’s is
becoming increasingly
competitive to attend.
• Currently ranked in the top 50,
the faculty is focused on
teaching and motivating
students to graduate in two and
a half years.
• A negative to the school is just
how competitive it can be with
students competing with the
NYU Law and Columbia grads.

5. NYU LAW
NEW YORK, NEW YORK
• Perhaps the most known law school
not only in New York City but all of
New York State
• With over 8,000 applicants and a
low acceptance rate, getting
accepted to NYU law is feat in itself.
• With excellent location in
Greenwich Village, and a reputation
for being maybe the best law
school in the nation.
• The negatives of the school are the
increasingly high tuition costs,
reaching over $40,000 along with
the price of city life.
