Since opening in 2006, the School of Law has enrolled
two talented and diverse classes. The charter class in
fall 2006 included 115 students, while 107 students
enrolled in fall 2007.
Elon University has created a School of Law in
which students and faculty are fully and
constructively engaged in the optimum development of
each student’s knowledge, skill and personal
attributes, and in the improvement of our system of
justice.
Those with primary responsibility for recruitment and
admission of law students will continue to work with
faculty, coaches and other members of the Recruitment,
Development and Placement team in helping Elon law
students become the best lawyers they can be, in the
places they will be of greatest and most rewarding
service.
During the admissions process,
the school evaluates applicants' potential for
academic success and professional growth, focusing on
their demonstrated achievement, aptitude for the study
and practice of law, and interest in civic engagement
and leadership.
Because achievement of Elon’s educational
mission mandates that its School of Law be relatively
small, it is unlikely that all of the very
well-qualified applicants who apply to Elon Law can be
accepted for admission. Nevertheless, the school
endeavors to communicate that it is honored by each
application it receives and is enthused to be part of
the legal profession, a vibrant network of individuals
and institutions drawn together by their interests and
values to maintain and continuously improve the justice
system and to help others within the context of that
system. The time spent preparing and submitting
applications to join the legal profession is profoundly
important. Elon Law appreciates your consideration of
it as your portal to the legal profession and
encourages you to prepare all of your law school
applications thoughtfully and forthrightly.
Information about our admissions process is available

applications will be mailed to you if you fill out the
"Request more information" form at the left.
