Juris Doctorate

The Elon University School of Law opened in downtown Greensboro, North Carolina, in fall 2006 with a charter class of 100 students. The school builds on Elon University’s national reputation for excellence in engaged learning and leadership education. It provides experiential opportunities for law students in a learning laboratory environment, with direct access to the region’s major courts, law firms and government and nonprofit agencies. Elon law students acquire extensive knowledge of the law. They develop broad lawyering skills and learn how to listen, communicate and interact effectively and resolve conflict in the broad range of complex situations lawyers confront. They are empowered to improve our system of justice and make the world a better place.

The School of Law produces a separate academic catalog.
