Regent Law Rated Top 10 Nationally for Teaching Quality and Professor Accessibility

VIRGINIA BEACH, VA (July 29, 2024) – The Princeton Review’s “Best Law Schools for 2024” placed Regent Law among the nation’s top law schools for academic experience, quality of teaching, and professor accessibility. 

Regent Law’s score of 98 for professors’ accessibility tied for 2nd best of the 168 law schools surveyed. Its score of 97 for teaching quality tied for 9th, trailing only the law schools at the University of Chicago, Duke, Florida State, Notre Dame, Stanford, UCLA, Vanderbilt, and UVA. Princeton Review also awarded a rating of 90 for Regent Law’s “academic experience,” tied with Yale, George Washington, Ohio State, Iowa, Tennessee, Washington & Lee, and several other schools.

“At Regent Law, we aspire to know and care for our students in an extraordinary way—the way the Bible teaches that God knows and cares for us. That’s the secret to our success. It’s why we’re top 10 in both teaching and professor accessibility,” said Brad Lingo, dean of Regent University School of Law. “Our professors are master teachers and committed mentors. I’m delighted that our students appreciate, and Princeton Review recognizes our academic rigor, dedicated faculty, and supportive community.”
