Career Services Pre-Law Info Session Feb-25




I attended the Pre-Law Info Session at the Downtown Phoenix Campus. I decided to attend for a variety of reasons. The strongest being that a variety of people who surround me are considering the idea of attending to law school. Secondly I wanted to learn more about what Law School is about and what the process is to attend. The session reaffirmed that Law School is not for everyone and that it is very pricey. I also learned a great deal of new information that I had never considered before.

I did learn that the LSAT a four hour exam which determines your legibility to attend. ASU prefers candidates with a 3.4-3.7 GPA and who obtain a scored of 150 and above on the LSAT. There are also merit-based scholarships, and Arizona has a law that only allows these types of scholarship for Law School. As well as it is a five year process, one year for admission, three years of studies, and one year to obtain the results from the Bar Test.  I really enjoyed learning about what the process even if I am not currently looking into Law School, it is always a consideration.

  1. That is great that you attended a Pre-Law info session even though you have no intentions right now. It is always better to know for future reference on how the process works. Last summer I took the prep LSAT courses during the summer, and it is time consuming. I think the first day most of us were impatient sitting down for long hours. I haven't yet looked into ASU admissions, so this was very insightful. Thanks.

  3. This is awesome! I completely agree with you. I fund your piece to be insightful since I have not looked into ASU admissions. There should be more options for pre-law.
