Summer Pre-Law Programs

Many law schools provide summer pre-law programs meant to assist students in preparing for the law school admissions process, as well as the challenges law school will provide. It is especially helpful for students who have no experience with the legal field previously. Many programs are specifically designed to target students from underrepresented communities, or first generation students. Here is a list of just a few examples of pre-law programs that are available, but not a exhaustive one. Students who are interested should also research other pre-law programs that fit their needs.
