About

Welcome to Howard University School of Law. New and continuing students should check this website regularly, as it will be frequently updated with news, events, spotlights on our faculty, students, and alumni, giving opportunities, and, most importantly, essential announcements, helpful advice, scheduling, law school requirements, and more.

This is an exciting time to be part of Howard University School of Law. Our Law Library continues to offer unparalleled research and learning opportunities. We have remodeled and smart-wired all our classrooms to incorporate emerging information technologies. Additionally, every faculty member has their own website, enhancing the quality of the learning experience by facilitating better communication between students and faculty outside the classroom. In virtually every way, this law school is leveraging technology to continue its tradition of providing “leadership for America and the global community.”

We recently renovated the entrance to Charles Hamilton Houston Hall, home to many of our classrooms and administrative offices. We continue to upgrade our facilities and are very proud of the beauty and serenity of our campus.

Of course, some things here will never change. The faculty, staff, and administration of Howard University School of Law remain as committed as ever to providing its students with the finest legal education available and to preparing the next generation of leaders. Led by a visionary dean, we have an exceptionally talented faculty and student body, and thousands of alumni who are making significant contributions to the legal profession and their communities across the nation. We invite you to visit us often, through this website and in person whenever you can.

Thank you for visiting and welcome to Howard University School of Law.
