Website Roadmap

If you are new to the idea of pursuing education and careers in law the Fields of Law, Law Education and Degrees, and Resources sections of this website would be a great place to start. As you look for students with similar interests, you can connect with the vibrant community of student-led organizations at Brown, including Student Groups focused on law and advocacy.

At any stage of your studies and exploration of the pre-law path, we encourage you to engage with your peers at Brown, tune in to or attend the many Events and Programs we coordinate, and Connect with an Advisor.  

If you are gearing up for the application process, the Preparing for Law School, When to Apply, Resources, Admission Statistics, and FAQ pages cover the application process, details about all of its components, and the dynamics of the pandemic year. 

Before matriculating to law school and when applying to state Bar associations, many admission offices ask applicants to have a Dean Certification completed.
