Ed. note: Welcome to our daily feature, Quote of the Day.
As U.S. News previously announced, we are dealing with an unprecedented number of inquiries during our embargo period for the 2023-2024 Best Graduate Schools, including requests from law and medical schools to update data submitted after the collection period.
While we address these inquiries, we have removed the preview content for the … 2023-2024 Best Law Schools rankings published here on April 11. As previously noted, the rankings are not final until they are published in their entirety on USNews.com.
— A statement released by U.S. News on the page where a preview of the rankings for the T14 was previously published earlier this month. The magazine has since delayed the release of the 2024 law school rankings twice since the new T14 was announced. Dean Erwin Chemerinsky of Berkeley Law, who questioned the validity of the new rankings alongside many other deans, told Law.com, “Perhaps they’re taking this down means that they are making corrections.”
