St.Thomas Law Earns Top National Rankings for Diversity

The 2018 edition of The Princeton Review - Best 169 Law Schools has been released and St. Thomas University School of Law has maintained its Top 10 national ranking for having the
"Greatest Resources for Minority Students" and the "Most Diverse Faculty."

Based on institutional demographic data, as well as on student ratings of whether all students in their law program receive equal treatment by faculty and students, regardless of ethnicity, the survey ranked St. Thomas University School of Law as one of the best institutions to earn a law school degree.


They solicited the opinions of 19,900 students attending these law schools who reported on their experiences at their schools on an 80-question student survey.  The survey asked students about their school's academics, student body, campus life, and their career plans. They also used data on admissions, academics, financial aid, and employment information.

The “Most Diverse Faculty” ranking is based on the percentage of the law school’s faculty that is from a minority group and the student assessment of whether the faculty is made up of a broadly diverse group of individuals.

St. Thomas Law also earned top ranking in preLaw Magazine, where we are nationally ranked Top 5 "Best School for Hispanics." We are one of only two Florida law schools to be highlighted for our diversity.

The newest rankings affirms St. Thomas Law's commitment to every student's success and shines light on the pride we have in our diverse student body.  The recognition is consistent with our mission to provide opportunities to those groups that have been and continue to be underrepresented in the legal profession.
