- The University of Virginia School of Law (Virginia Law) was founded in Charlottesville in 1819 by Thomas Jefferson as one of the original subjects taught at his "academical village," the University of Virginia. The law school maintains an enrollment of approximately 1,100 students in its initial degree program (the Juris Doctor or J.D.). It also offers the Master of Laws (LL.M. ) and the Doctor of the Science of Law (J.S.D. ) degrees. According to U.S. News the school's reputation is solidified as Top 14 (also known as a T-14 school) and has recently enjoyed consistent appearances in the prestigious "Top 10" U.S. News & World Report rankings (UVA dropped out of the Top 10 once in 1994, when it was ranked 14th). Currently, U.S. News ranks Virginia Law 10th, tied with Northwestern and regional peer Duke. According to Brian Leiter's Law School rankings, Virginia Law ranks 17th in the nation in terms of scholarly impact as measured by academic citations of its faculty. And in terms of overall student numerical quality, Virginia Law ranks 8th in the nation. The school receives no funding from public coffers except for in-state student tuition subsidies. Thus, the Law School depends upon the largesse of private donors, its substantial endowment and student tuition payments. In 1995-1997, the Law School used entirely donated funds to renovate and expand its buildings on the University's North Grounds to include the former facilities of the Darden Graduate School of Business Administration which built a new campus several hundred yards away. The Law School's 51% alumni giving rate is among the highest of the nation's law schools.
