Law school is a major commitment with lifelong implications. One Winter Term course has been equipping DePauw students, pre-law or otherwise, with the knowledge to help them decide early whether law school is right for them. In “Preparing for Law School and Legal Careers,” students become acquainted with the law school admission test, explore what careers are available with a law degree and get a glimpse into life as a first-year law student. They also learn about opportunities available through the DePauw Law Scholar Program, a scholarship program that places DePauw graduates at Indiana University Robert H. McKinney School of Law and Indiana University Maurer School of Law. Read more.
