Located in Chicago, Northwestern's tax program is a branch of the university's law school. One aspect of Northwestern's education of which the university is especially proud is the low student-to-instructor ratio. Because of this, it's easy to have a one-on-one relationship with your professors at Northwestern. Also, these professors have written much of the material used in the classroom, so they know the course lessons inside and out.
