After joint review with Santa Clara, we have restored the school's profile using data provided by Santa Clara following its internal review of each 2010 graduate's student file. Rather than relying on student-supplied data, which is what the school reported to U.S. News and reported on its website (the original data in the school's profile), Santa Clara added data the administration culled from conversations and basic investigation.
Note: One major change is with the 28 jobs Santa Clara originally reported as non-professional. Santa Clara tells us "[t]his was done in error." While these graduates were still employed, Santa Clara does not know what sort of credentials (e.g. bar passage required) those graduates' jobs required. However, Santa Clara does know 12 of these 28 graduates' employer types (e.g. law firm) and expected working hours (i.e. FT or PT).
Key Facts:
Total 2010 Graduates: 305
4.6% of graduates were employed in school-funded jobs. 0.3% were in long-term, school-funded jobs (i.e. the job had a fixed duration of at least one year or the job had no definite duration).
44.9% of graduates were known employed in full-time legal jobs.
This figure includes an unknown number of temporary jobs and school-funded jobs.
Santa Clara University has these data and may share them publicly on the school's website. Last we checked, they did not. If you would like to demand that the school be transparent and accountable, suggest that it publicly provide its NALP report like a number of its peer schools.
