Part of AccessLex Institute’s LexScholars initiative, LexPreLaw is a diversity pathway program that targets prospective law students from underrepresented racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic backgrounds who possess potential for law school success but may be unlikely to gain admission. Participants will have endured and overcome disadvantages and demonstrated a clear commitment to pursuing admission to law school.
Participants will benefit from access to various resources based on the program they applied or were referred to, including LSAT preparation; law school admission counseling; financial education; writing skills development; and engagement opportunities with current law students and legal professionals. There are no costs associated with any LexScholars program. Some participants will receive stipends and other financial aid.
