School of Law

Accessible, student-focused legal education is here. 

Experience a different approach to legal education, one that is dedicated to breaking down barriers to the legal profession, at the new Wilmington University School of Law.  

WilmU Law serves qualified students from all walks of life, including traditional- and non-traditional-age students, as well as professionals transitioning from other careers. Its leaders value the principles of equity and inclusion in the Delaware and national legal profession and enroll students who reflect the diverse communities they will serve. 

Multiple program options and unique curricula facilitate student success in an increasingly competitive marketplace. Theory and practice combine in externships that provide hands-on opportunities to help practicing attorneys solve real challenges.

So exciting to introduce the Wilmington University School of Law, this is a very exciting day for us.

Wilmington Universitiy's project is a long term vision designed to help people prepare for a profession that needs their talents.

No one thinks that we need another law school that's doing the exact same thing that all the other law schools are doing. The values of this university match perfectly with the ideals for a truly unique and innovative law school.

We are a private, nonprofit institution. We've been privileged to change lives, through education, while being responsive to the needs of the community.

We are focused on hiring people who have practice experience, who have a great resume. I care about what you're going to do in that classroom. And do you want to be involved in making life better for students? And I think we're going to have great faculty because we're affordable. Somebody has to do something about law student debt.

We have always put students first and fostered an inclusive environment that offers academic excellence, affordability, convenience and flexibility. Our law school will be no different.

We define University broadly. And we'll implement that on both the faculty, the staff and the student body.

The need for lawyers and Delaware has more than doubled.

When you go to law school, you expect the job, and our job is to get a student to the job that they want wherever they want it to be.

We promise indeed I guarantee the Delaware lawyers will support the students of Wilmington University School of Law as they make their way into the profession.

We look forward to preparing law students for the world that awaits them as attorneys, starting a law schools a heavy lift, but we are ready
