Two top law schools withdraw from the U.S. News college ranking system. Is the list's longtime power coming to an end? 'We're seeing a sea change,' says admissions expert Jeffrey Selingo.
Yale and Harvard law schools, two of the premier law schools in the country, have each held a spot on the U.S. News & World Report’s list of best law schools for decades. Now, the schools are bowing out. Every year, U.S. News releases a list of the country’s best colleges, including a list of the best law schools, using data submitted by each school. This list is then used by students and employers to judge the merits of the college or university.
“As part of our mission, we must continue to ensure that law schools are held accountable for the education they will provide to these students and that mission does not change with this recent announcement.” Still, Gerken argued that the magazine actively discourages law schools from providing aid by placing heavy emphasis on LSAT and GRE scores, as well as GPAs.
