DownersThey need to work on their rating, the brand new school is nice but what is the cost?
CommentsIt's a good school but consider the cost. Also, because of its ranking, you'll need excellent grades to get the same opportunities as others at higher ranked schools.
Would You RecommendYes
The quality of the professors is top notch. You can expect challenging classes and meaningful interaction.
DownersThe school refuses to reduce class size despite falling rankings.
CommentsGet as much scholarship money as you can, and consider other options if you receive more money from them.
Would You RecommendYes
Quality of faculty-many are real world practitioners rather than Ivory Tower types.
Great clinical program.
Beautiful new campus.
Downers-Too much of a focus on Humantiarian law-these types of jobs are scant and not readily available not non T-14 law school students.
-Did not have the best Career Counseling program-more or less "try and network" advice.
CommentsIf you are looking for a D.C. based law school where you can learn from great professors, WCL is a great choice. Also, if you lean liberal, you will feel comfortable here.
Would You RecommendYes
WCL has some amazing professors who not only enjoy teaching, but are great teachers too. And the professors have excellent relationships with nonprofits and government agencies for those interested in internships in those areas.
DownersWCL admits a ton of students to each class, which makes the school feel less prestigious.
CommentsOverall, you can receive an excellent education at WCL, if you are selective about which classes to take.
Would You RecommendYes
Great teachers
Well regarded program
Good exit opportunities
Well known
DownersToo big
Rankings are dropping
Focus too much on international law
CommentsThink about what area of law you want to go into. If it is international law this will be good for you.
