At Ohio Northern University, we go beyond teaching students how to think like lawyers; we also train students to act and react like lawyers. While other law schools focus on theory, we combine theory with hands-on skills needed to be successful in the practice of law.            

Located in Ada, Ohio, ONU’s College of Law attracts some of the most talented students from across the country, who are passionate to embark on a successful career in the legal profession. Small class sizes, a 10:1 student- faculty ratio and a devotion to individualized legal education have made ONU one of the treasures of the Midwest.                              

Current students and alumni continuously note personal relationships with faculty, peers and the community among the most unique aspects of their law school career. Supporting our students, whether it’s through after-class discussions, career services support or clinical training, is a priority. Law school can be challenging, and the right environment is critical to success.                                                                                                                       
Students who have completed our program are prepared for a successful career in law. This has been recognized by employers throughout the U.S. For eight consecutive years, ONU Law’s nine-month employment rate has been higher than the national average. This is also illustrated in our most recent Bar Passage Rate of 92% for all Ohio first-time takers.      

As dean, I am committed to seeing that each student who passes through these doors is receiving the attention, education and training he or she needs to begin a successful career in law.
