Here is a list of Australian law schools and their rankings.

How many law schools are there in Australia?
In total, there are 38 Australian law schools, with a further two accredited non-university law courses.
This law school list is intended as a convenient source of information for prospective law students, and includes:
- the QS World University Rankings for law (if there is a ranking);
- whether it is a G08 university; and
- common acronyms, where applicable.
New Zealand law schools are also included at the bottom (which, I note, all have QS World University Rankings).
