Students interested in law school are not required to take a core curriculum of courses. However, students are encouraged to take courses that increase skill in communication, writing, and analytical thinking.
Human Ecology students interested in pursuing a legal education should schedule an appointment to meet with the prelaw advisor (link to contact page) in the Student and Career Development Office, 172 MVR.
Tips for Prelaw Students:
- Connect early! Discuss your goals with your academic advisor, talk to peers and faculty, and find out about unique opportunities to build on your strengths and interests.
- Schedule an appointment with the prelaw advisor to discuss the law school application process and the undergraduate pre-law experience in Human Ecology.
- Broaden your knowledge by attending prelaw events and programs on campus.
- Join Human Ecology’s Pre Law Undergraduate Society. Contact the prelaw advisor for details.
- Increase skills in reading and writing through academic and extracurricular activities.
