Join the Pre-Law Advising Office as we host a panel of UIUC alumni to discuss some of the many possibilities available during “gap years” prior to law school. Taking time prior to law school is an increasingly common pathway for many UIUC students.  This can be a very beneficial choice for many prospective law students and is a pathway favored by some law schools. Attendees will hear first-hand perspectives on taking time prior to law school, as well as insights about specific types of opportunities pursued during this time.  Listed below are the panelists.

Sarine Kalayjian '24 – Private Law Firm

Mia Macias '24 – Teach for America + Masters

Mariama Mwilambwe '23 – Fulbright Scholar

Daryl Salinas '24 – Congressional Intern

Najeeb Syed '24 - Illinois JusticeCorps

This program is highly recommended for any junior or senior students considering taking time prior to law school.  Please register for the online event, HERE.
