South Texas College of Law Houston Reviews

"I thoroughly enjoyed my time at South Texas. Three of the best years of my life. Graduated in 1991. I would do it all over again if I could. My degree was a game changer in my life. I felt well prepared to begin my career in law and have enjoyed much success. Highly recommended."

"Fantastic school- but let me tell you- law school is absolutely no joke."

"It is very helpful to be located in the. Middle of downtown were there is much to do. Being located downtown also makes it easy to use public transportation to reach the campus from any where in the city, allowing for study time on the way."

"The program will have all of its students ready for the courtroom. With the clinics they have the class that are taken, you are ready for your legal career."

"Expensive degree to acquire but should be worth it."

"A wide variety of teaching styles keeps the classes interesting! Not much pure Socratic teaching (thankfully!!). Rather, while they obviously encourage independent thinking, there is generally an effort by the faculty to convey the information you really need to take your analysis to the next level. The school also offers optional student-lead classes which give students the opportunity to ask questions in a less intimidating environment. These student-teachers also give valuable insight into test-taking strategies for that specific professor, and valuable law school survival tips. These and other classes & seminars demonstrate the school's dedication to their students' success."

"My graduate program is in the heart of a major international city- Houston leaves so many opportunities wide open for a career in law once you've graduated and this program is extremely well known and respected in this area. The transportation in is all public, however, there is plenty of it and there are so many great places to live in the surrounding areas. The school also provides housing assistance so those that have trouble or are coming from out of town. The social life is helped by our local student bar association as they plan get togethers and outings for those who would like to participate, but the student body is extremely motivated in getting to know one another and making a point to network with each other. The work load here at South Texas is substantial, but what law school doesn't have a large course load? You would be hard pressed to find one. The Value of the program is incredible. Not only do you get talented professors that have had years of successful experience in the field, but they also prepare you incredibly for the bar exam and get you connected for your future after leaving the college. Overall an incredible choice!"
