Law schools in this list are categorized by whether they are currently active or closed; within each section they are listed in alphabetical order by state, then name. Most of these law schools grant the Juris Doctor degree, commonly abbreviated JD, which is the typical first professional degree in law in the United States. Alaska is currently the only state without a law school. Law schools are nationally accredited by the American Bar Association (ABA), and graduates of these schools may generally sit for the bar exam in any state. There are 198 ABA accredited law schools, along with one law school provisionally accredited by the ABA. The ABA occasionally revokes accreditation, as was done mostly recently with the Thomas Jefferson School of Law in 2019. In the past decade, since 2014, 11 law schools have closed, with the most recent closing, of Golden Gate University School of Law, announced in fall 2023. In addition, individual state legislatures or bar examiners, like the State Bar of California, may maintain a separate accreditation system which is open to non-ABA accredited schools. The California State Bar also accredits law schools, which the California Committee of Bar Examiners (CBE) recognizes. Also, the CBE allows registered "Unaccredited" schools to operate and students of those schools are eligible to take the California Bar Examination upon graduation. Twelve correspondence and online law schools, although not accredited, are registered by the Committee of Bar Examiners of the State Bar of California. This means that the graduates of these distance learning law schools can sit for the California Bar Examination and, under varying circumstances, the bar exams in many other states.

The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, also known as AACSB International, is an American professional organization. It was founded in 1916 to provide accreditation to business schools.
Not all AACSB members are accredited and AACSB does not accredit for-profit schools.
On average, AACSB observes that schools take between four and five years to earn AACSB Accreditation.
The amount of time it will take a school to earn accreditation depends largely on how closely aligned they are with AACSB standards when they apply for eligibility.
The AACSB withdrew recognition by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation in 2016. This is because the AACSB now holds international recognition by the ISO.
History
The American Assembly of Collegiate Schools of Business was founded as an accrediting body in 1916 by a group of seventeen American universities and colleges.
The first accreditations took place in 1919.
For many years, the association accredited only American business schools.
But in the latter part of the twentieth century it advocated a more international approach to business education.
The first school it accredited outside the United States was the University of Alberta in 1968, and the first outside North America was the French business school ESSEC, in 1997.
Robert S. Sullivan, dean of Rady School of Management, became chair of the association in 2013.
The organization is currently led by CEO and President Tom Robinson, who came to AACSB from the CFA Institute, a global association for investment management professionals;
its board is chaired by John A. Elliott, former dean of the University of Connecticut School of Business.
