class of approximately 180 students, giving Stanford the smallest student body of any law school ranked in the top fourteen ( T14). Stanford Law also confers four advanced legal degrees: a Master of Laws (LL.M.), a Master of Studies in Law (M.S.L.), a Master of the Science of Law (J.S.M.), and a Doctor of the Science of Law (J.S.D.).

Stanford Law School employs more than 90 full-time and part-time faculty members and enrolls over 550 students who are working toward their Doctor of Jurisprudence (J.D.) degree. It has the highest percentage of recent graduates clerking for federal judges. Stanford Law is consistently regarded as one of the most prestigious law schools in the world. Since 2016, Stanford Law has been ranked second, overtaking this position of Harvard Law School for five consecutive years as of 2021. Established in 1893, Stanford Law has been ranked one of the top three law schools in the United States, with Yale Law School and Harvard Law School, every year since 1992.

I believe GGU's low ranking has to do with the bar pass rate, which is totally unrelated to the LL.M. If you can get into NYU, definitely go for it, but you can get an excellent education at GGU as well. in Taxation to anyone, especially if you are staying in CA.

The program was full of practicing attorneys so the small classes had lots of practical discussion. My professor for Tax Procedure was a sitting judge with years of tax controversy experiece. My professor for Corporate Taxation and Partnership Taxation wrote the textbook - the same book used at NYU, Miami, and all the other good programs - and was an excellent teacher. from a top 20 law school and I can tell you my experience at GGU was extremely positive. This is a remarkably uninformed opinion about the LL.M. if you want a LL.M in tax and don't have the creds to go to a top tier law school, try the University of San Diego. Not as impressive as NYU, but a solid program and a good value.

Call the school, go for a tour, speak with present students, and make up your own mind. GGU is striving to become an excellent school, and I highly recommend you disregard the hearsay negativity I have seen posted here. The state-wide pass rate for CA historically is under 60%. The CA Bar is one of the most difficult in the country to pass, and all the schools have relatively low pass rates. The other SF schools also are very good, and one should not be mislead by bar exam stats. News, and is the ONLY LL.M in environmental law in California. in Environmental Law has been ranked highly by U.S.

in Tax is highly ranked, and only one of a handfull of such degrees in California. The teachers uniformally were great, and gave one-on-one attention to each student. in Environmental Law, I can tell you that my experience there was excellent. Unfortunately, for me, a graduate of both Stanford Law and Golden Gate with an LL.M. It's quite disturbing to see the negative comments about Golden Gate given by people who likely know nothing about the university except what they've heard, yet this doesn't stop them from imparting their wisdom.
