I want to go to law school eventually – should I major in journalism, Spanish, or take time to double major?
If you want to major in international law – it would look go to have the Spanish major especially if you are interested in working in immigration, etc. Anyone who is a college graduate can apply and get accepted into law school. You will get plenty of experience writing during your 4 years of college. You don’t have to be a journalism major to develop exceptional writing skills. Look at your prospects for law school and then look at the demographics of their entering classes. Compare their majors/GPA’s with what you expect to have at graduation. That is always a good way to see if you are on the right track. However, you need to choose a major that you are passionate about and will enjoy studying for the next 4 years. Don’t choose a major solely to get accepted into law school. All the Best!
