Pre-Law
Preparing for a career in law…
Law schools seek students who are curious, engaged, and academically strong, but there is no single path to get there. As a pre-law student, your goal is to explore your interests, challenge yourself, and build the skills that will help you think critically, write clearly, and lead effectively.
Students from every major and background go on to law school. What matters most is pursuing what inspires you, whether that is political science or physics, music or mathematics, and demonstrating intellectual curiosity and academic rigor along the way.
Beyond the classroom, experiences that strengthen your communication, leadership, and problem-solving skills will help you grow personally and professionally. Studying abroad, getting involved in your community, or taking on meaningful internships can all deepen your perspective on justice and society.
When you are ready to apply, strong academics, thoughtful involvement, and genuine self-reflection will make your application stand out.
