Fordham University School of Law; the University of Illinois College of Law; DePaul University College of Law; the University of Arkansas at Little Rock William H. Bowen School of Law; and the University of St. Thomas School of Law are the latest to adopt JD-Next, after the ABA’s Council of the Section of Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar approved their use when it met in late May.
