A PERSONAL APPROACH TO LEGAL EDUCATIONOur 10:1 student to faculty ratio allows for some of the most engaging student-to-faculty inter-action in the country. ONU Law has faculty who were trained at the top law schools in the country and who have used their training in courtrooms throughout the United States. They are eager to convey their knowledge and experience to our students. A smaller student body means you are not wasting time waiting to meet with professors. Faculty members know their students by name and care about their success, both in and out of the classroom. At ONU Law, you are not just a number.

Nationally recognized as one of the most innovative law schools in 2012, ONU Law is preparing students for 21st century practice. As one of the smallest law schools in the country, we provide students the ultimate small law school experience. Accessible, nationally recognized faculty, consistently strong bar passage and employment statistics, and a curriculum that melds theory with practice are all qualities that define “who we are.”

cover subjects typically tested on the bar are com-plimented with Teaching Assistants (TA’s), who are second or third year students who did exceptionally well in that same class. They hold weekly review sessions and are available for one-on-one aca-demic counseling.

MELDING THEORY WITH PRACTICEOur curriculum has been developed to teach stu-dents the necessary skills needed to become pro-ficient practitioners. We expect our students to ob-tain 10 credit hours of skills training during their time in law school. Our skills courses are designed to provide students with the professional skills needed to practice the law. A vital component of skills training is hands on practice experience. ONU Law’s 7 outstanding clinical placement pro-grams allow students the opportunity to delve into the field and get the experience that will help set them apart after graduation. It provides them with the knowledge and expertise for which our gradu-ates and alumni are known. ONU Law has provided clinical education opportunities for students for over 40 years and we continue to be on the fore-front of experiential education.

JESSICA MARCO, 3LThe academics at ONU Law are designed in a way that best shapes law students’ ability to “think like a lawyer” and to learn how to read and write like a lawyer. Further, the substance of the classes offered is in-tended to teach the basic foundations of the law, along with current emerging issues today. There are seminars and skills classes offered to allow a student to choose particular subjects that are either of interest to them, or will best prepare them for practice.

Ohio Northern engages its students in a rigorous academic curriculum, dedicated to creating analytical thinkers who will grow into successful lawyers. Small class sizes enrich the educational experience and allow professors to bring the curriculum alive for students. ONU law students can choose from a variety of specializations and course options while also expanding their experience by studying abroad, participating in Law Review, accepting research and teach-ing assistantships, participating in pro bono programs or taking an active role in Moot Court.
