Pre-Law Degree Programs

Laws keep societies in balance by governing everything from appropriate streetwear (hint: birthday suits are not advised by most legal regimes) to suicide and workplace safety to water rights. In an increasingly interconnected world, international laws also help balance relations between countries and forestall outright war, like a handy rulebook that outlines best practices for not killing each other. This makes laws pretty important, and students with the skills to craft and implement them are critical to creating a more just and safe world for all. Students with international experience will be even better equipped than their domestically educated peers to identify and resolve global legal challenges.

Most students pursuing international pre law programs are in it because they’re dying to take their legal studies even further after graduation. Well, good news! Getting a pre-law degree abroad is also a great way to set yourself apart from the crowd on law school and job applications.

Even more important than application appearances, getting a pre-law degree abroad ensures the adventure of a lifetime before hunkering down in law school. Research shows that law school students generally spend too much time in the library and are at regular risk of being smothered by monstrous civil procedure and dispute resolution textbooks. Accordingly, an important part of prepping for law school is getting out there to see the world before torts and con law become your world.
