FIU Law grads earn highest Florida Bar passage rate, 88.1 percent

FIU College of Law graduates have, once again, earned the highest bar passage rate of any of Florida’s 11 law schools on the July 2018 Florida Bar Exam. This accomplishment follows first place finishes on the February 2018, July 2017, July 2016, February 2016, and July 2015 bar exams.

With a passage rate of 88.1 percent, FIU Law’s alumni also surpassed the statewide average passage rate by 20.9 percentage points.

“Our entire faculty work tirelessly to put our graduates in the best position possible to succeed on this high-stakes exam,” said Antony Page, dean of the FIU College of Law. “Our director of bar preparation, Professor Raul Ruiz, and our Assistant Dean for Academic Excellence, Louis Schulze, have created a unique law school program that helps students learn more effectively and ultimately become better lawyers. I also want to applaud our graduates for their hard work, and congratulate them as they become the newest members of the Florida Bar.”

The College will host a swearing-in ceremony for its graduates on Tuesday, September 18.
