The John Marshall Law School is a law school in Chicago, Illinois, that was founded in 1899 and accredited by the American Bar Association in 1951. John Marshall derives its name from the notable chief justice of the Supreme Court of the United States.
The John Marshall Law School separates itself from other law schools by offering programs for both part-time and full-time students, with both day and night classes available, and by offering January enrollment, choices most law schools no longer offer.
John Marshall is located in Chicago's central financial and legal district, most commonly known as The Loop. It is across the street from the Dirksen Federal Courthouse, which houses the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit and the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, and about four blocks from the Daley Center, which houses the Cook County Courts. It is also next door to the Chicago Bar Association.
John Marshall was ranked in the Fourth Tier in the 2007 publication of U.S. News & World Report law school rankings.
