The term "T14" refers to the top 14 law schools in the United States, which are the institutions that most frequently claim the top fourteen spots in the yearly U.S. News & World Report ranking of American law schools. The T14 schools remain the only ones to have ever placed within the top ten spots in these rankings. The T14 law schools are as follows:
- Yale Law School
- Stanford Law School
- Harvard Law School
- University of Chicago Law School
- Columbia Law School
- New York University School of Law
- University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School
- University of Virginia School of Law
- University of Michigan Law School
- Duke University School of Law
- Northwestern University Pritzker School of Law
- University of California, Berkeley School of Law
- Cornell Law School
- Georgetown University Law Center
Attending a T14 law school is worth it if the curriculum and offerings align with your professional and personal goals. However, it is hard to get into a T14 law school in general, especially if the acceptance rate is a single digit. LSAT scores vary from 120 to 180, but the typical median LSAT score for T14 law schools is quite high at 171.
