University of Kentucky College of Law, in Lexington, was founded in 1908, but its heritage dates back to 1799, when Transylvania University was founded as the first law school west of the Alleghany Mountains. That law school, which was private, was supported by the state until the state chose to found University of Kentucky.

In 1913, the College established the nation’s first law school trial practice program, and its Kentucky Law Journal is the tenth-oldest student-run law review in the nation.

UK Law offers students a variety of clinical and externship experiences. The UK Legal Clinic gives students the opportunity to represent low-income or elderly individuals, as well as UK students in a variety of civil legal matters.

In addition, UK Law offers several externships for course credit, in which students can obtain experience in applied research, fact gathering, interviewing, counseling, negotiation and trial advocacy.
