Temple University Reviews of Doctorates in Law

"Quality program and quality faculty. Highly competitive and praised trial advocacy program. Needs to offer more of the same classes offered in the day to night students. Also, needs to follow some of the other leading law schools and offer more transactional classes."

"The pros of Temple's law graduate program is certainly the faculty and level of education. All of the professors want to help you learn and are great with communication and building relationships. I was pleasantly surprised by the friendliness of my classmates and enjoy the main law building including the cozy library. Cons include room for improvement with technology upgrades, not so great career services- they will respond to your questions but there is a feeling of being left in the dark regarding a lot of time sensitive issues, and a lack of safety of the area immediately outside of campus, however Temple's police force is quick to respond to any adverse events and the campus itself is secure."

"The biggest pro of Temple Law is the affordability of the program for PA residents. Other pros include the diversity of the campus and its accessibility to public transportation. Big cons of the school are interconnected: campus safety and the school's surrounding area are causes for concern. The school is located in a rather rough part of Philadelphia and safety of students cannot be guaranteed in surrounding areas."

"Temple Law is a great value for the quality of education. It is by far one of the cheapest law schools on the east coast, and it provides a quality education with an impressive staff for a relatively low cost. Financial aid is also very helpful and willing to work with students to make college affordable. In terms of social life, most students at Temple Law are from Philly/the suburbs and already have an established life outside of law school. For the relatively few number of non-Philly students, this can be a challenge to making friends. The school does offer numerous social outlets on the weekends sponsored by various student organizations. The curriculum is challenging, but the faculty is more than willing to help its students grasp difficult concepts. Law school is a challenge in itself, but the faculty support makes it easier to get through. Overall, a great school for its value."

"Temple Law is a great quality of education and is much more affordable than other Law Schools of similar quality. The school is located just North of center city Philadelphia, offering a vibrant social and night life for its students, as well as a number of extra-curricular activities to get involved in."

"This program is excellent! I am constantly impressed by the quality of the professors, the excellence of the academic challenges, the helpfulness of administration and staff, the positivity and camaraderie of the students, and the strength of the alumni network."
