특징 | - 예일은 Bill and Hillary Clinton, President Ford, Supreme Court Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito 등 유명인사를 졸업시켰다 - 예일커리큘럼은 타 학교에 비해 융통성이 있다 (예를 들어 다른 로스쿨과 달리 예일 1학년 첫 학기 수업은 정해져 있지 않다) - A, B, C 학점 대신 Honors, Pass, Low Pass, Fail의 시스템으로 진행되고 있다 - 예일학생들은 기숙사 말고도 다른 살 곳을 구할 수도 있지만 거의 예일의 성당 같은 건축물을 선호한다. - 예일학생들은 한 기숙사에 같이 살기 때문에 1년만 있어도 로스쿨 커뮤니티 안에서 모든 사람을 알 수 있다. |

The Yale Law School
The Law School at Yale University has an application deadline of February 28. The full-time program application fee at the Law School at Yale University is $60. Its tuition is full-time: $58,050 per year. The student-faculty ratio is 7.8:1. The Law School at Yale University has 171 full- and part-time faculty on staff.
At this highly ranked, Ivy League law school, traditional grades no longer exist. In fact, students do not earn any grades at all during their first term at Yale Law School; afterwards, they are graded only by honors, pass, low pass, credit or failure. Class sizes are small, often with less than 20 students.
There are no areas of concentration at Yale, though students may tailor course selections to suit their interests. Joint degrees are offered in conjunction with other professional and graduate schools at Yale, including the highly ranked School of Management. Students can also take courses at these schools without integrating a second major. Especially ambitious students can earn an accelerated, integrated J.D./MBA in three years, the same amount of time it takes to complete a traditional J.D.
With more than 20 legal clinics at Yale, students can immerse themselves in real-life legal experiences as early as their first year. Students represent real clients in domestic violence disputes, apartment eviction proceedings and more. In addition to clinical experience, students can test their legal smarts in workshops and on-campus centers.
Outside of the classroom, students have about 50 organizations to check out, from the student a cappella group Habeas Chorus to the Yale Federalist Society. Students can live in university-owned graduate student housing in New Haven, Conn., though most choose to live elsewhere around town.
Among the law school’s most notable alumni are former President Bill Clinton and Supreme Court Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas.
