The University of Wyoming College of Law, founded in 1920, is ABA accredited and a member of the AALS. An excellent faculty comprises 25 full-time distinguished professors as well as more than 15 part-time adjunct professors, with highly qualified lecturers to instruct a student body of approximately 225. The limited size of the student body and the favorable student-to-faculty ratio (approximately 11 to 1), create an atmosphere of friendliness and informality. Students enjoy a degree of access to faculty rarely found at larger institutions. UW Law provides a high-quality, affordable legal education. It is consistently considered to be one of the best value schools in the nation. The College of Law is located in Laramie on the campus of the University of Wyoming, the only four-year institution of higher learning in Wyoming.
