Beyond Academics

Pre-Law students are encouraged to participate in extracurricular experiences such as leadership roles, volunteer work, research, and shadowing, which will help prepare them for the legal profession. Extracurricular experiences play a significant role in a student’s application to a professional school program and exploration of the profession. Such experiences demonstrate a commitment to and knowledge about the profession. In particular, shadowing legal professionals and involvement with clubs such as the Pre-Law Club, Mock Trial Club, or Phi Alpha Delta will help students to learn more about the legal profession.
