The new, high-tech research law library is one of the finest in the world. Two miles from the center of Hartford, the Law School is located in a historic residential neighborhood near lovely Elizabeth Park. Many students, faculty, and staff live in the large Victorian homes that surround the campus. Close proximity to Hartford gives students ready access to the State Capitol, courts, government agencies, law firms, and major corporations. These institutions provide varied opportunities for study, externships, clinical education and practice, and employment.
Small classes support a commitment to a high level of civil discourse conducted on a human scale.
The Law School, founded in 1921, is accredited by the American Bar Association. Graduates are prepared to practice law in any jurisdiction, with no special emphasis on Connecticut law.
