You have dreams and at KU we want to help you reach them. From strengthening academic skills to exploring legal careers, pre-law advising is available to KU students.

The Pre-Law Experience at KU

At the University of Kansas, pre-law students come from nearly every undergraduate major. Our students prepare for future legal education while pursuing an undergraduate degree that aligns with their interests and passions. Through your major courses and electives, you can make any major a pre-law degree.

As a leader in undergraduate education, we support our pre-law students with individualized advising opportunities. If you are interested in learning about how to take the LSAT, what to write for a personal statement or who to ask for letters of recommendation, you can schedule an advising appointment with pre-law advisor Jake Brillhart.

This site is a resource for you, but you should also consult other sources for insights and perspectives about choosing law as a career. KU has many resources for pre-law students, including organizations such as Phi Alpha Delta and activities to help you explore your options. We look forward to working with you as you pursue your goal of attending law school.
