List of Ivy League law schools

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This list of Ivy League law schools outlines the five universities of the Ivy League that host a law school. The three Ivy League universities that do not offer law degrees are Brown, Dartmouth and Princeton; they are the smallest universities in the Ivy League by enrollment. All five Ivy League law schools are consistently ranked among the top 14 law schools in the nation or T14.[1]

The Law School at the College of New Jersey formerly existed at Princeton University from 1847 until 1852, officially closing in 1855.[2]
