Loyola Marymount University is the home of Loyola Law School in downtown Los Angeles. It was founded as a private Jesuit school located in 1920. The Law School is named in honor of the Jesuit Founder, St. Ignatius of Loyola.

The Princeton Review chooses the Top Ten Law Schools every year based on a survey of 17,000 law students from 170 law schools. The survey is based on many factors important to the quality of education. One factor is the faculty and their teaching ability plus availability outside the classroom. Law students are asked about their resources for doing research and if there are a large range of classes available. Does the school offer a balance between Law Theory and Practical Application? These are some of the points that earned Loyola Law School their ranking.

The Law School has seen much growth and received recognition in national rankings from the Princeton Review. ''First'' for Best Classroom Experience and ''fourth'' for Professors Rock (you read it right) and ''fifth'' for Trial Advocacy by U.S. News & World Report.

Victor Gold is Dean and a Professor at Loyola Law School. Dean Gold believes it is a simple formula that makes the school successful, ''the stronger our faculty, the stronger our reputation. The Loyola Law School diploma on your wall appreciates in value like the sound investment'' Dean Gold tells students that the school works vigorously with students in the years before graduation to gain employment for all students. 97 % of Loyola Law students are placed after their graduation.

The Loyola Law School current enrolls 1360 law students with 50% being women and 37% minority students. They are the 12th ranked school for minority admission. Tuition is just under $38,000 for full-time students and approximately $25,000 for night students. A large percentage of law students have some type of financial aid at Loyola Law School.

The law students currently run 3 Law Reviews with the goal to publish professional articles, backed by thorough research to gain advancement in legal scholarship.
