Over the past two election cycles, thousands of college graduates — and women in particular — have decided to go to law school. With the right to abortion officially overturned and reproductive freedom now resting in the hands of state governments, women have been even more inspired to study the law, perhaps in search of a way to reclaim the constitutional rights they once had that were so recently snatched away.
The latest Princeton Review law school rankings are out, and today, we’ll focus on yet another incredibly important ranking during these unprecedented times in America: The law schools with the greatest resources for women.
Which law schools do you think came out on top of this list?
First, we’ll begin with the methodology Princeton Review used to determine which law schools offer the greatest resources for women. This ranking was based on the percentage of the student body who identify as women as well as on student answers to a single survey question: Whether all students are afforded equal treatment by students and faculty regardless of their gender.
According to Princeton Review, these are the law schools where women stand on equal footing with their male classmates:
1. UC Davis School of Law
2. CUNY School of Law
3. Stanford University School of Law
4. Pace University Elisabeth Haub School of Law
5. New York Law School
6. UCLA School of Law
7. Samford University Cumberland School of Law
8. Western State College of Law at Westcliff University
9. Loyola University New Orleans School of Law
10. Northeastern University School of Law
