The University of Tulsa College of Law — Attraction in Tulsa

Terrible investment. After it was all said and done, it cost $90K for a juris doctorate degree that resulted in a horrible starting salary. They will do next to nothing to help you find a job or an internship unless you're a top 5-10% student. From professors that are rude and/or dismissive to completely failing to prepare students to practice law, this was a terrible experience. Then they have the audacity to ask for money while you're still paying back your student loans with interest.

My personal favorite was the email ad for their Master of Jurisprudence in Energy Law program, which would've required incurring more debt and provided no evidence that it would actually help with a career in the energy industry.

If you really want to practice law, don't listened to the negative reviews, every place has these people who didn't put the work in and now blame everyone else. I hope this post was helpful and, wherever you go, never give...

I had an excellent experience at TU Law. The professors really care about students and will take the time to sit down with students to work through questions or simply to get to know them. Alumni are willing and eager to speak with and help students and other alumni. I am consistently impressed with the school's dedication to social justice, access to legal education, and its focus on student success. Like anything in life, you get out what you put in. For those willing to do the work and who exhibit a good attitude, you will reap...
