Belmont students come from every state, more than 35 countries, and all faiths. The Belmont faculty is dedicated to teaching, service, and active engagement in scholarship.  The median LSAT/GPA for the 130 students who entered the law school in August 2020 were 156 and 3.60 (75th percentile: 159 and 3.80; 25th percentile: 153 and 3.36), placing the school well within the top 100 U.S. law schools for quality of enrollees.  Belmont’s ultimate bar passage rate for 2018 and 2019 was 100%, one of only a few law schools in the country to have achieved a perfect pass rate in those years.
