U.S. News Announces Release Date For Brand New Law School Rankings
What will the 2024 U.S. News & World Report law school rankings look like after more than 40 law schools have withdrawn from participation? According to an announcement from the magazine, we'll find out on April 18, when the new Best Graduate Programs rankings are officially released.

A revolt against the U.S. News rankings started in mid-November, after Yale Law School opted out of the rankings, with its dean calling them "profoundly flawed." Dozens of law schools -- including the vast majority of the T14 -- followed the elite law school's lead, withdrawing from the rankings while sounding their own harsh notes of criticism.

According to Law.com, these are all the law schools that will no longer supply U.S. News with their own data (listed in order of the date of their withdrawal):
