The 2014 US News rankings are out, and once again Temple Law’s
upward movement has continued. The school’s overall ranking
rose to #56, the second highest ranking for a Pennsylvania law
school behind Penn. In addition, four Temple specialty
programs were ranked – itself a recognition of the breadth and
depth of the school’s success. Temple Law is ranked #2 in Trial
Advocacy, #5 in Legal Research & Writing, #12 in part-time
programs and #13 in International Programs.
“What’s striking to me as I look at this report is Temple’s
sustained record of excellence, particularly in skills-based
programs, and our markedly lower tuition relative to similarly
ranked schools. We’re very conscious of the fact that law
school is a considerable investment, and we work hard to ensure
that every dollar our students spend on their education is worth
it,” said Dean JoAnne Epps. “I’m proud to see that commitment to
our students reflected in these rankings.”
