Of the other top conservative schools... Of course, BYU and Notre Dame are excellent, widely regarded as among the top schools in the country. And yes, Notre Dame is a LOT more conservative "then you remember it." George Mason has a lot of commuters; I wonder if that's why it does so well by some measures, but so poorly by program completion and % passing bar on first try. Baylor is very, very strong, but not quite world class. (Baylor supporters, I expect to hear you refute that!) Regent is simply failing to get its ducks in a row, it's tooo non-selective.

As a Graduate of the first class (2003) I can say that it was very conservative while I was there. Of course, I might have been a little more conservative then most, but there was, and still is, an amazing intellectual discussion going on there. I personally do not like the Dean of the school (part of the old Catholic Law School guard), but the faculty is outstanding.

Ave Maria is also very JAG friendly. The first class alone had 10% of graduates go JAG. Among other descriptions, Ave Maria is a "God and Country" kind of school.
