After 57% Enrollment Decline, St. Louis Welcomes Larger 1L Class With Lower LSAT, GPA Medians
After shrinking its class size 57% from 2010 (334) to 2013 (145), St. Louis (ranked #82 by U.S. News) welcomed 186 1Ls this Fall, a 10% increase from 2015 (170) and a 28% increase from 2013.
This year's enrollment increase resulted in 1-point decreases in St. Louis's 25th (151) and 50th (154) LSAT percentiles, and decreases in its 25th/50th/75th GPA percentiles. Here are St. Louis's admission data for the prior six years from Law School Transparency:
