Great Bar Pass News

Congratulations to the Regent Law School graduates who passed the February bar exam! The Virginia Board of Bar Examiners reports that 85.7% of our first time takers (and 80% of all Regent takers) passed the exam.

For the first time (as far as I can remember), the Board of Bar Examiners reported the pass rates by school. We had the second highest rate among all Virginia schools—19% above the state-wide average and just behind the #1 school, Washington & Lee. See the results here.

We have spent the last three years working and praying with these men and women; it is a true joy to see them ready now to fulfill their calling as lawyers. The outstanding pass rate is a tribute to our students’ hard work, to a rigorous curriculum—especially in the areas of writing and legal analysis, and to a great set of faculty colleagues who train with excellence. We praise God for our graduates’ success.
