The pre-law curriculum at Saint Martin’s University consists of courses offered by a number of departments including Political Science, History, Criminal Justice, and Business. Many majors offer strong preparation for legal study. Pre-law students are encouraged to select courses that stress writing skills, critical thinking, and broad exposure to a challenging array of courses that reflects our American intellectual heritage.

Admission to law school is heavily influenced by the applicant’s University grade point average, score on the Law School Admission Test (LSAT), rigorous nature of his or her academic program, and supporting documentation. As a consequence, students interested in pursuing a legal education are encouraged to select a rigorous course of study, maintain above average academic standing, and develop strong relationships with faculty who challenge and develop their intellectual skills. Since the goals and background of students vary, each student is advised according to his or her individual educational plan, interest, and situation.
