What is the best pre-law curriculum? What college major should I select to best prepare for law school?
Brooklyn Law School has no fixed requirement with respect to the content of pre-legal education. The nature of a candidates college work, as well as the quality of academic performance, is taken into account in the selection process. Most often, a broad liberal college education is preferable to one that is narrowly specialized. While our Admissions Committee looks for a showing of thorough learning in some wide cultural field of your choice, such as history, economics, government, philosophy, mathematics, science, literature or the classics, applicants with other majors are also accepted in large numbers. We strive to enroll a talented, diverse student body at BLS and you will find that philosophy reflected in the range of educational backgrounds represented in each class. For example, the current student body includes a number of former teachers, journalists, engineers, scientists, doctors and nurses, accountants and business professionals.
