USC Dornsife College: Your Gateway to Graduate Education

  • Pre-Law

    USC students, alumni, and staff who are interested in going to law school can take part in events and services offered by the Pre-Law Program at USC.  Students can consult one-on-one with academic advisors in the Dornsife College Advising Office who specialize in this area. Pre-law advisors assist current USC students in crafting an undergraduate academic program designed to lead to law school admission and assist alumni on an as needed basis regarding their candidacy. Pre-law advisors specifically aid in all aspects of the law school application process, including law school selection, how to write an effective personal statement, how to request appropriate letters of recommendation, and providing guidance in academic and non-academic opportunities.
