What it takes to get in
These are the school's own reported 25th, 50th, and 75th percentile LSAT and GPA numbers from its ABA Standard 509 filing, the same disclosure every accredited law school has to file each year. The 50th percentile is the median: half the admitted class scored above it, half below.
| Year | LSAT 25th | LSAT 50th | LSAT 75th | GPA 25th | GPA 50th | GPA 75th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 157 | 160 | 162 | 3.3 | 3.6 | 3.8 |
| 2019 | 154 | 157 | 160 | 3.3 | 3.5 | 3.6 |
| 2015 | 154 | 157 | 158 | 3.2 | 3.5 | 3.6 |
The median LSAT is up 3 points since 2019 and the median GPA moved +0.1. The bar moved here.
What it costs
| Sticker tuition (2025) | $59,495/yr |
| Resident | $47,240/yr |
| Nonresident | $59,495/yr |
| 3-year sticker total | $178,485 |
| Pays full sticker | 26% |
| Gets some grant | 74% |
74% of the class gets some grant money and 26% pays full sticker, so a score above the 162 75th percentile is the strongest position for merit aid at a school with this tuition.
What you get out (Class of 2024)
| Class year reported | 2024 |
| FT/LT employed, 10 months out | 88.4% |
| Biglaw (101+ lawyer firms) | 9.1% |
| Federal clerkships | 2.4% |
| Government + public interest | 23.8% |
| Bar pass rate | 76.7% |
88.4% of the 2024 class had a full-time, long-term job within 10 months, but with only 9.1% in biglaw, the $178,485 3-year non-resident sticker only makes sense with the resident rate or a grant.
Your odds
A 160 LSAT places you at Oregon's median, inside the 157 to 162 middle 50%, and 55% acceptance means most applicants in that range get an offer. Below 157 you're relying more heavily on the rest of the file. Run your own numbers through the calculator before you spend a filing fee guessing.
