Elon University School of Law

Elon University School of Law prepares students to be exceptional lawyers through a rigorous core curriculum, including a leadership program that equips students to address regional, national and global challenges, in an environment that emphasizes innovative teaching and an array of field-based experiences.

Student learning is enriched through a close association with the faculty, who provide global perspectives and a commitment to innovative teaching, scholarship and service. Students benefit from regular interaction with leaders in law, business and civic life, including members of the law school’s advisory board, chaired by a former adviser to four U.S. presidents, and including a former North Carolina governor, three former Chief Justices of the North Carolina Supreme Court, the Chair of the American Red Cross and a past president of the American Bar Association.

Students engage the law through clinics, moot court, trial advocacy and field-placement programs, as well as a preceptor program through which more than 50 attorneys serve as mentors to law students from the start of their law school experience.
