Muller: Non-JD Enrollment Declines 9%; At 11 Law SchooIs, Non-JD Enrollment Is At Least 40% Of Total Enrollment
Following up on yesterday's post, ABA Releases Data On Law School Admissions: 1L JD Enrollment Fell -0.5%, Non-JD Enrollment Fell -9.0%: Derek Muller (Notre Dame; Google Scholar), Law School 1L JD Hits Six-Year Low, Non-JD Enrollment Trends Down:
Ten schools have at least 40% of their total overall law school enrollment made up of non-JD students in 2023.
Non-JD enrollment has been more fickle in recent years. It ballooned to more than 24,000 students last year, good for more than 17% of all law school enrollees, but settled down to 21,966, 15.8% of all law school enrollees, and still consistent with recent highs.
