Pre-Law
At NAU, our Pre-law program is committed to helping students make informed decisions about whether law school is right for them and to helping them prepare for their future as a law student. Because law schools do not require particular majors, students can apply and be accepted to law school no matter their degree. Rather than create a Prelaw major, we have chosen to provide information that is helpful in preparing, selecting, and applying to law school.
