It has very low admission standards compared to most of the other law schools in the Boston area. If you cannot get in anywhere else, you might give them a shot. It is very easy to get admitted. They admit people with below 2.8 undergrad GPA and LSAT scores in the 140's. Yikes! It has very high acceptance rates, 80%+. You have to wonder what it would take to not get admitted.

Despite its low ranking, the law school has excelled in one area, law dean greed and tuition increases. Law Dean O'Brien was said to be the highest paid law dean in the country, raking in far more than the dean of Harvard Law. That is probably the only thing this school will ever be number one in. His compensation is in stark contrast to the poor outcomes and high student debt many of the graduates will face.
