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).

Click on the university name to be directed to its webpage (a new window will open).
