Our Legacy of Inclusion

Brooklyn Law School has been committed to inclusion and nondiscrimination since its founding in 1901. During a time when many law schools excluded women and racial and religious minorities, we accepted all qualified students, without regard to their race, gender, or religious affiliation, acting as an important gateway to economic, civic, and professional success for people of all backgrounds.

Today’s student body reflects our ongoing commitment to equal opportunity and nondiscrimination. Our students come from different backgrounds, undergraduate institutions, and geographic regions, but they share a common commitment to academic excellence in the study of law.

Together with our talented faculty and against the backdrop of New York City, one of the most diverse cities in the world, our students create a vibrant, inclusive intellectual community and a great place to begin life as a lawyer.

Title IX & Reasonable Accommodations

Brooklyn Law School is committed to maintaining a respectful, supportive, and inclusive, community free from sexual misconduct. The Law School’s Sexual Misconduct Policy identifies behavior that constitutes sexual misconduct and was created to foster a climate of respect and security on campus and to prevent and respond to sexual misconduct. These procedures help ensure that students understand their rights and are aware of how to find any resources they may need. The Law School has mandatory Title IX training for all incoming and student leaders.

Students seeking a reasonable accommodation based on a physical or mental disability must seek accommodations through the accommodation process. The purpose of the Reasonable Accommodation Procedures is to provide students with information about how to request accommodations so that their physical or mental disability, including pregnancy and related conditions, do not exclude them from Brooklyn Law School’s academic programs and activities.
