Why UVA?

Picture
"The beauty of Virginia Law is it embraces diversity. The collegial atmosphere of the Law School is warm and welcoming to the many voices and life experiences that make this community strong. That serves students while they are here, and once they venture beyond Grounds."

--CORDEL FAULK ’01, FORMER DEAN OF ADMISSIONS


current student Perspective

UVA BLSA provides an enriching and supportive environment for its members. We create opportunities for students to connect personally and professionally with fellow students, professors, and future employers to ensure that students have a well rounded law and fulfilling law school experience. No matter your political views or socio-economic status, there is room for you in BLSA and we warmly welcome you to our community.

--Yewande Ford, '23 (2021-22 Chapter President)

Alumni PerspectiveS

Picture
"Virginia Law is the most fantastic place that you could consider studying the law. It is no surprise that whenever I speak to UVA Law alumni, they always smile and reflect nostalgically on their time at UVA. Any UVA Law School student or alumnus can attest to the inviting and intellectually stimulating environment that this law school offers. One rarely finds such a combination, and I have been fortunate to have spent three great years in a place where the students and faculty work hard to maintain a collegial community."

--JESSICA CHILDRESS ’10

"UVA Law is about making sure the most dynamic students fit with the culture. UVA is about honor, it is about working hard and playing hard. Maintaining that culture seems just as important as maintaining its ranking. You're already smart. Go the extra mile and show that you would be a great fit here. But being a good fit doesn't mean that you have to be a cookie-cutter law school applicant. Emphasize your differences, not just your similarities. Be unapologetically yourself." 

--ZACHARY RAY ’16 (2014-2015 President)
