The law schools in Newark and Camden were separately incorporated into Rutgers in 1946 and 1949, respectively. The two entities were merged into a two-campus Rutgers School of Law in 1950. In 1967, Rutgers separated its law schools as distinct units. In 2013, a plan for the two law schools to merge was approved. In 2015, the American Bar Association approved the merger of Rutgers' law schools into one unified Rutgers Law School with two distinct locations in Camden and Newark.
