Pre-Law Institute

Welcome to the Pre-Law Institute!

Are you thinking about going to law school? As part of the Center for Post-Graduate Opportunities, the Pre-Law Institute will work with you to help you:
  • Consider whether you would like to be a lawyer and attend law school
  • Explore different legal career paths
  • Think about lawyers roles as advocates for justice
  • Prepare for the LSAT, draft a law school personal statement, enhance your resume, and submit your law school applications 
  • Network with law schools, lawyers and law students 
  • Apply for law school scholarship opportunities
  • Get ready for the academic rigors of law school
 
You do not need to "join" the Pre-Law Institute; our programs and services are available to all John Jay students and alumni.
 
To get started, please take a look at our programs (http://www.jjay.cuny.edu/programs). We offer a variety of programs throughout the year.
 
If you would like to be added to our mailing list to stay updated on our programs and/or speak with a pre-law advisor about law school and your plans, please email us at pli@jjay.cuny.edu. We are available to assist you via phone, zoom and email.
