About UC College of Law

Fourth Oldest Law School

We offer an intimate and distinctive legal education while drawing on the resources of a major research university.

  • The College of Law at the University of Cincinnati—the fourth oldest continuously operating law school in the nation—is a rare resource. We offer an intimate and distinctive legal education while drawing on the resources of a major research university and a large vital city to offer a rich curriculum and an array of opportunities usually found only at much larger institutions.

    Our law students graduate with a thorough grounding in the theory of the law, and also with practical skills derived from hands-on experience. We have a productive and influential faculty, highly qualified and dedicated students, and alumni of extraordinary accomplishment and commitment. Our history of innovation has kept us consistently at the frontiers of legal education for over 175 years.
