Students Say
The academics at USC are “challenging but doable,” and students “constantly [feel] supported by the environment built by students, faculty, and administration.” This applies even to first years; because core classes are “taught by fairly prominent members of the faculty, who [are] very keen to engage with students from the jump,” this means that everyone gets to utilize the “highly intelligent and experienced” and just plain “high caliber professors.” Students note, too, that this results in more active classes: professors “present their topics/lessons, but also press us to consider them from several angles” and “ask students questions and work with their thoughts to guide the discussions, not just expecting a certain answer.” The school is always improving too, and the law library has been recently updated—it is “large, beautiful, free of books, and full of study spaces”—and is a “very nice place to get work done.” As for informational events, the school sets up “formal seminars on law school test taking” and has “peer tutors share strategies to help first-year students succeed.” Finally, while Career Services tends to steer students “into traditional paths of big law or public interest, they are very good if you are OK with that path.”
