The University of Virginia was ranked No. 2 in Above the Law’s annual law school rankings, among other accolades for the UVA Law community.
The ATL rankings, which focus on employment outcomes, draw from the latest American Bar Association employment data for the Class of 2021. The online blog also factored in law school debt and costs, and regional cost of living adjustments. Duke University School of Law topped the list.
At nine months after graduation, when the ABA collects its data, 98.1% of UVA Law’s 2021 graduates were employed, earning a median salary of $210,000.
