Florida International University’s College of Law (“FIU Law”) is dedicated to excellence in legal education that empowers students from all economic backgrounds to achieve their ambitions and drive meaningful change in their communities.

Aligning with Florida International University’s (FIU) national leadership in economic and social mobility and FIU Law builds upon the University’s recognition as the nation’s #1 university for economic & social mobility by U.S. News & World Report, 2025.

The law school combines research excellence with a focus on economic opportunity, mirroring the university’s dedication to advancing social mobility. Recognized by The Wall Street Journal as a leading institution for “student experience,” FIU fosters a supportive community that supports students from all backgrounds and experiences.

FIU Law is especially committed to uplifting first-generation students, providing financial assistance and career resources tailored to their needs. FIU Law awarded over $3.5 million in scholarships and grants last year, with more than 35% of this funding reserved specifically for students with financial need. This commitment to affordability allows our students to focus on building their careers without the heavy burden of debt, giving them the freedom to pursue a wider range of career opportunities that match their passions and goals.

“By making legal education more accessible through substantial financial support and targeted resources, we’re not just helping individual students achieve their goals – we’re strengthening the legal profession by ensuring it reflects the diverse communities it serves,” said Dean Antony Page. “Our commitment to economic & social mobility goes beyond providing opportunities; it focuses on transforming lives and empowering the next generation of legal leaders.”

By reducing financial obstacles and cultivating a supportive academic environment, FIU Law helps students and their families achieve upward economic and social mobility.

Through career readiness initiatives like the Talent Development Network, FIU Law ensures that students graduate not only with a law degree but with hands-on experience and professional networks essential for success in today’s job market.

“FIU created a culture of community and collegiality throughout their program and how faculty mentored and instructed all of us,” says Daniel Cortes, a 2019 J.D. graduate (who is now….add his current job??). “I feel like a better person from the knowledge I learned but also the life lessons shared and all the mentorship from colleagues, faculty and staff.”

FIU Law’s holistic approach to legal education empowers graduates to excel in a wide array of professional and legal fields and serve as strong advocates for their clients and causes. By delivering excellence, while ensuring access and affordability, FIU Law enables our students to be successful and make a lasting impact on their communities and on the legal profession.
