[edit] Overview
Cardozo is a relatively new law school, having graduated its first class in 1979. [1] Cardozo's success as a young school has been remarkable, leading some to characterized Cardozo as a "rising star" among law schools. [2] Only two young schools have matched Cardozo's rise in the U.S. News & World Report rankings – BYU Law School (founded 1973) and George Mason University School of Law (founded 1972). [3]
Cardozo is currently ranked 53rd by U.S. News, which is the most widely read (and criticized) ranking of law schools. While Cardozo is noted for its strength in a variety of areas,[4] its Intellectual Property and Dispute Resolution programs are exceptionally well know. This is due, in large part, to both programs being ranked 6th by U.S. News.
The Innocence Project, run by Cardozo Professor Barry Scheck, is also very well know and frequently reported on in the national news. [5]
Signifying its recognition by long-established law schools, in 1999, Cardozo became a member of the Order of the Coif, a scholastic honor society for law scholars. [6].
Cardozo's excellence was recently acknowledged when an associate justice of the U.S. Supreme Court selected a Cardozo graduate for a clerkship. [7] A Supreme Court clerkship is arguably the most prestigious appointment for law graduate and is an honor typically reserved for the very best students at the most elite law schools. [8] This is the second time a Cardozo graduate has been chosen for a Supreme Court clerkship. [9]
Most of Cardozo's 9,000 alumni reside in the New York metropolitan area, and they have a considerable presence in New York City. However, some Cardozo graduates pursue their career internationally and many can be found across the country in 46 states.[10]
[edit] Admission
Admission to Cardozo has become increasingly competitive. The GPA and LSAT scores of entering students are consistently higher than schools with similar rankings.
The class entering in Fall 2005 had a 3.5 median GPA and a 164 median LSAT score. The top quarter of LSAT scores were 166 or higher, and the top 25% of the incoming class had a 3.72 GPA or higher. [11]
The top undergraduate feeder schools for Cardozo have been Cornell University, New York University, University of Pennsylvania, Columbia University, the State University of New York, and the University of California. [12][13][14] Approximately 20% of incoming students hail from the Ivy League. [15]
