Since its founding in 1953 as part of Villanova University, Villanova Law had educated more than 10,000 lawyers who have taken their place in the profession.  You will find them on the benches in federal and state court houses; as members of state and federal legislatures and in high government office (the former governor of Pennsylvania is a VLS grad); leading corporations, major law firms and public interest agencies;  teaching and writing; and practicing at the very highest levels.  Learn more about our history.

Villanova is at once modern, yet rooted in tradition.
