Students interested in a career in the legal profession should contact the Political Science and Public Administration Department for referral to one of the pre-law advisers who have significant experience assisting students who wish to prepare for law school.

There is a specific political science/pre-law major available to students, but law schools will accept students with other majors. Pre-law advisers help students select appropriate course work to prepare them for law school, fulfill other prerequisites for law school admission and assist them with applying to law schools.

For department information or additional degree requirements, go to the Political Science and Public Administration department page.
