Loyola has a separate law school campus on a full city block just west of downtown Los Angeles. It consists of an open central plaza surrounded by several contemporary buildings designed by Frank Gehry.[14] Its recently renovated library has a collection of nearly 560,000 volumes.[15]
It was the first California law school with a pro bono graduation requirement,[16] under which students perform 40 hours of pro bono work.[17] After Hurricane Katrina, Loyola was also one of a handful of schools to open its doors to students of law schools in New Orleans who were forced to relocate for a period of time after the hurricane.[18]
Degrees offered include the Juris Doctor (JD); Master of Science in Legal Studies (MLS); Master of Laws (LLM); Master of Laws in Taxation; Juris Doctor/Master of Business Administration (JD/MBA); Doctor of Juridical Science (JSD)[19]
It has been an American Bar Association (ABA) approved law school since 1935.[20] It is a member of the Association of American Law Schools (AALS).[21]
Loyola is a member of the Order of the Coif, a national law school honorary society[22]
2010 adoption of B-curve grading system
Before 2004, Loyola used a unique "numeric grading system" where GPAs ranged from 70 to 100. In 2004, Loyola adopted the more familiar 4.0 "letter grading scale" used by other law schools, applying a low 2.667 forced median GPA. However, all other Los Angeles area law schools applied a median GPA between 3.0 and 3.3. In May 2010, Loyola corrected this imbalance by raising their median GPA one-third of a point to 3.0 – retroactive to all classes taken since 2004. Loyola claimed the move as necessary to enable its students to be competitive with those from UCLA, USC, and Pepperdine law schools. Deans of other Los Angeles law schools stated that the move was in line with their grading policies.[23]
In June 2010, Loyola's plan to retroactively change grades was the subject of a New York Times article.[24] Comedian Stephen Colbert also mocked Loyola's change in grading policy on Comedy Central's "The Colbert Report."[25]
Bar passage rates
Loyola's first-time takers of the July 2015 California Bar Exam passed at a rate of 76.5%.[26] – above the 68.2% statewide average for ABA-accredited law schools. For July 2014, the law school achieved a 79.9% pass rate – above the 69.4% statewide average.[27] Loyola's first-time takers of the July 2013 California Bar Exam passed at a rate of 87.7% -- giving it the third-highest pass rate in the state.[28] Based on a 2001–2007 6 year average, 72.4% of Loyola Law graduates passed the California State Bar. The first-time pass rate for Loyola Law School graduates on the July 2010 California Bar Examination was 84%, nine percentage points above the 75% rate for all ABA-accredited schools in California.[29]
