What makes FSU Law unique?

The location and community of FSU Law make it a special place. Regarding location, attending school in a state capital provides tremendous opportunities to work for and network with judges, legislators, and attorneys. The community within FSU Law is also unique. Instead of a hostile and cold law school environment, one sometimes hears about, the culture of FSU Law is very much about balancing the rigors of law school with an environment where students look out for each other and intentionally enjoy the law school experience.

What are your plans/ideal plans post-graduation?

I am interested in a few different paths, including the Army JAG Corps, as well as a career in Business Law.

What is your favorite thing about FSU Law?

The professors are my favorite part of FSU Law. They are highly committed to both student success and building relationships outside the classroom. Examples of the latter range from professors playing chess during office hours to inviting the entire class out to a restaurant to celebrate the end of the semester.
