Ohio State is in the process of revising websites and program materials to accurately reflect compliance with the law. While this work occurs, language referencing protected class status or other activities prohibited by Ohio Senate Bill 1 may still appear in some places. However, all programs and activities are being administered in compliance with federal and state law.

Ohio State Law Fair

The 2025 Ohio State Law Fair has concluded.

Please join us in Columbus next year!

Tuesday October 6th, 2026 from 11am-2pm

Ohio Union Archie M. Griffin Grand Ballroom

Law School and Exhibitor Details

We will be looking for student volunteers to help the day of the 2026 Fair!  Watch for a Sign-Up Genius page next Autumn.  It's a great way to network while helping your fellow students, especially first year students wanting to participate without the stress of being close to applying.  Volunteers will receive a $10 Target gift card and a small treat (for each shift) as a thank you!

The 2025 Ohio State Law Fair featured 114 law schools along with numerous exhibitors, speakers, and other resources from around the country.  Each year all events the week of the law fair are free and open to the public including all Ohio State students and alumni!

To get the most out of the law fair and to see overviews for each law school attending, students are encouraged to pre-register using their handshake account; free registration will also be available the day of the Law Fair at the check-in table for any students who do not pre-register and for any attendees who are not Ohio State students.  All attendees are also encouraged to attend any of the pre- and post- law fair workshops listed below.
