New College of California School of Law was a private, non-profit law school in San Francisco, California. It was founded in 1973 as a part of the now defunct New College of California, and deemed itself the oldest public interest law school in the United States. It offered a full-time three-year program and a part-time four-year program. New College of California was investigated for financial aid mismanagement, and financial aid funds were frozen while the investigation took place. While no proof of financial wrong-doing was ever released to the public, the financial aid freeze caused the school to become unable to meet its financial demands. In February 2008, due to the college's inability to meet payroll the Western Association of Schools and Colleges ("WASC") withdrew its accreditation of New College of California, with which the Law School was affiliated. As a result, the college folded. As of April 1, 2008, the students transferred to John F. Kennedy University School of Law (as did several faculty members^[1]), and New College School of Law ceased to exist.^[2] The closed school does maintain a website which provides information regarding the school and past students.^[3]

A number of well-known lawyers and activists taught and studied at the school, including Peter Gabel^{[citation needed]}.
