According to an article published on February 10, 2017 by Vault, CUA Law ranks #26 nationally as one of the best schools for BigLaw jobs. Vault conducted a 2016 survey with 15,673 BigLaw associates and identified the associates ABA-approved law schools. Vault then factored in the size of the law school and the ABA's 2016 law school matriculation data. They used the matriculation numbers to calculate an expected number of BigLaw associates by school size only and then compared that to the actual number of BigLaw associates.
