Prospective law students, current law students, and law school alumni are eagerly awaiting release of the 2024 U.S. News Law School Rankings, which usually occurs sometime in March. This year, rankings may be delayed due to changes being made to the methodology, Above the Law (ATL) reports. The publishers say the results will come sometime “in the spring.” Six of the metrics used in the past will not be included this time and graduates with school-funded public interest jobs will be counted the same as other employed graduates. U.S. News has not indicated how weights for other metrics will be affected, what bar passage data will be used, or whether peer evaluations will be included. Using the data known to be in the mix, ATL previews what the rankings could look like.
