The Washington Post reported that law schools “across the country are facing their lowest enrollment numbers in years, causing some to slash their budgets and revamp their programs in an effort to attract students worried about finding a job in a diminished legal industry.” The Post notes that a little more than 41,000 people “applied to go to an accredited U.S. law school in the most recent admissions cycle, compared with 77,000 in 2010 and 90,000 in 2004, according to the Law School Admission Council,” and it adds that even “top-ranked Harvard Law School witnessed a drop in applications before rebounding in the last two years.”
