You’ll learn from faculty who are leading thinkers in areas ranging from corporate law to social justice—and who are invested in your career as well.

Thanks to one of the best student-faculty ratios in the country, your Iowa Law professors see you as an individual, not a number. They have an open-door policy and use their networks to connect you with career opportunities.

And when you ask for a letter of recommendation, you can be sure it will stand out, because it will come from someone who truly knows you.
