This workshop is designed for Political Science students who are new to pre-law or are interested in learning more about it.
We will cover: What it means to be pre-law at Illinois, with a particular focus on Political Science related questions and opportunities. Topics include: course selection, extracurriculars, building a pre-law resume, and what law schools are really looking for. We will outline a four year plan to maximize your undergraduate experiences in order to make a great law school candidate. We'll also take any questions about law school and legal careers.
This particular Pre-Law 101 session is for PS students, but all of the other Pre-Law 101 sessions are designed for students of any major. Incoming freshmen should attend a Pre-Law 101 prior to setting up an individual pre-law advising appointment. Registration will open in early August so that we can ensure enough seating and materials.
