The New York Law School (NYLS) Summer Pre-Law Program is designed to provide students from underrepresented communities with a dedicated set of opportunities to explore the law and create a pathway to earn their J.D. degree at NYLS.

Participants in the Summer Pre-Law Program attend courses at NYLS for two consecutive summers. The program is open to rising college juniors who study in the New York City metropolitan area, or elsewhere in New York State. NYLS works directly with undergraduate partner institutions to identify candidates, and the inaugural class included approximately 25 students. Please pass along this information to your students.

This program runs for four weeks the summer before students’ junior year and four weeks the summer before students’ senior year. As part of the program, NYLS checks in with participating students throughout their junior and senior years and provides them with law school-related resources.

This year’s program will start on June 5, 2023 and end on June 29, 2023.

The curriculum, which includes four hours of class per day, four days a week, was developed and is taught by NYLS’ faculty. It includes these topics:

Thinking about meaning
Reading for comprehension
Putting your thoughts into words with precision
Reasoning by syllogism

Project-Based Capstone
Preparing for the LSAT

The Project-Based Capstone represents the culmination of students’ work during each summer session and will engage students in simulated arguments on behalf of a “client.”

Week 1 – June 5 – 8 (in-person)
Week 2 – June 12 – 15 (remote)

The LSAC Prelaw Undergraduate Scholars (PLUS) Program is a unique immersive learning experience specifically aimed at undergraduate students from minoritized groups that are underrepresented in the legal profession. Each year, several member law schools host PLUS Programs and we are pleased to announce that our host law schools are currently accepting applications for their 2023 programs.  

The PLUS Program helps participants explore their interest in law, understand the skills needed to succeed in law school, gain insights on the legal profession and future career options, and learn more about navigating the law school admission process. Participants also build confidence and community through supportive networking and mentoring relationships with diverse legal professionals, faculty, and peers as they engage in a program that specifically acknowledges and addresses the challenges faced by minoritized students on the path to law school.

There is no cost to apply or to attend the program if selected. We invite you to learn more about the PLUS Program and this year’s host law schools. For more information, students can attend a webinar on Tuesday, February 28, from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. ET, which will provide program details as well as insights from a panel of PLUS alumni.
