Program Overview

Pre-Law

Preparation for Law School

Preparation for law school requires a broad-based and rigorous undergraduate education that emphasizes critical thinking, studious reading, and excellence of writing.

Choosing a Sound Academic Program

We can help you choose a sound academic program, plan for the LSAT exam, explore appropriate internships, and apply to law school.

No Particular Major Required

Although there is no particular major required for admission to law school, your chosen program of study should include challenging courses that sharpen the intellect and develop your ability to think analytically and communicate clearly. These skills can be refined in any number of courses including those in the humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, and business.
