Pre-Law

As such, there is not a pre-law major or degree plan. Pre-law means your goal is ultimately to become a lawyer. To become a lawyer, one first must graduate with a bachelors degree in any area, take the Law School Admission Test and hopefully be admitted to a law school. After three years of law school, a student would take the Bar Exam to become a lawyer.

Since any degree will work to be admitted to law school, you will need to choose a major. Although many choose political science, business, psychology, engineering, English or some other liberal arts major, you might want to choose a major that prepares you for a career in case you choose not to go to law school or are not admitted to law school.

You can choose to see the generic AA or AS or go back to select a possible undergraduate major.
