About the School (Back to Top)
With a consistently high pass rate on the State Bar Exam, the School of Law at Texas Tech University has always been a leader among Texas law schools. A small student body, a diverse faculty, and a low student–faculty ratio (15.4:1) are only a few of the factors that promote learning and encourage interaction between students and professors at the law school. Because Texas Tech is the only campus in the state that is home to a major university, law school, and medical school, students benefit from this unique combination by not only being able to obtain a Doctor of Jurisprudence (J.D.) but also by being allowed to pursue one of the following joint degree or certificate programs::
Applying for Admission (Back to Top)
An applicant for admission to the School of Law must have received or completed all requirements for a baccalaureate degree from a college or university of approved standing prior to beginning study at the School of Law (unless enrolled under the “3+3” program described in the Honors College section of this catalog). An applicant’s record must be of sufficiently high quality to demonstrate that the applicant is qualified for the study of law. An applicant also must take the Law School Admission Test, which is administered four times a year throughout the United States and in many foreign countries by the Law School Admission Council. The School of Law cooperates with the Texas Tech University Honors College, the College of Arts and Sciences, and the College of Visual and Performing Arts to provide special admission programs for exceptional undergraduates. Consult the Honors College section of this catalog or view www.honr.ttu.edu for more information. The School of Law does not prescribe a specific prelegal curriculum for its applicants. The wide range of lawyer tasks and the difference in offerings from school to school preclude such an approach. However, all students should strive toward the following goals when planning their college program: acquire the ability to read, write, and speak the English language well; gain a critical understanding of human values and institutions—political, economic, and social; and develop the power to think creatively.
