References to the lowest and highest GPA and LSAT scores, including all data under the headings "GPA Low", "GPA High", "LSAT Low" and "LSAT High" reflect those of the 25th and 75th percentile, respectively, among those applicants granted admission who enrolled as full-time students in fall 2015.
The acceptance rates, indicated under the heading "Accept," are those of applicants granted admission as full-time students for classes commencing in fall 2018. The acceptance rates of the applicants do not reflect actual enrollment rates, a subset figure.
The student-to-faculty ratios are indicated under the heading "S/F Ratio" and show the number of students for that class per faculty member. These ratios reflect the applicants granted admission who enrolled as full-time students in fall 2015.
The bar passage rates reflect those among first-time test takers for the winter and summer 2014 administrations of the bar examinations. "State Bar" indicates the statewide bar passage rate for the jurisdiction in which the greatest number of the law school's graduates took the bar exam for the reported period. "Pass Bar" is the bar passage rate among those students who passed the bar exam within that jurisdiction.
The employment rates shown are those of the 2014 full-time graduates at the time of graduation ("Empl. @Grad") and ten months after graduation ("Empl. @10Mos").
The data shown under the heading "Library" indicate the number of print and microform volumes, as well as volume equivalents.
