Studentenleben bei Indiana University Maurer School of Law

Student facts

Each year 50 to 70 talented students join us from more than 20 countries around the world. They come to us while at various stages of their lives, education and careers and range in age from 20s to their 60s. Many students arrive with their families and they all quickly become a part of our Indiana Law family. Our graduates might stay to sit for a US Bar exam, return to their home country to practice law in their area of specialization, return to work to improve their company’s legal department, as a professor to share our legal education with countless others, or even work in government to develop their country’s constitution and shape the future.
