Law Path Registration Fee

$50.00

 

Law Path Scholars are interested in finding out more information about your schools. To that end, we have scheduled an interactive virtual law fair for Saturday, September 23, 10:00AM – 1:00PM. Each law school agreeing to participate will be assigned to a specific 20-minute block. The program will close with a reconvening where you are invited to join Law Path Scholars to address any additional questions. Please note: if we have a high response from law schools, we will extend the program to 1:30PM (including a brief break) or add an additional day during the fall semester.

Deadline to respond:  Wednesday, September 13, 2023.

Description

Program Synopsis: Spring 2019, Florida International University College of Law was awarded a $124,850 grant by the AccessLex Center for Legal Education Excellence and launched a new pre-law initiative, the Path to the Legal Profession (“FIU Law Path”). FIU Law Path offers to undergraduates traditionally underrepresented in the profession, pre-law programming that builds skills critical to both success in law school and throughout the application to law school process. FIU Law Path combines exposure to the traditional law school experience supplemented by a range of opportunities including academic enrichment and critical skills development, intensive LSAT preparation, personalized counseling throughout the application process, and individualized mentoring by a member of the bench or bar.

Admitted FIU Law Path Scholars participate in an online program offering two components:

1) Introduction to law school courses taught by FIU Law faculty; and

2) An intensive (free) 6-week LSAT preparatory class with the goal of sitting for the fall LSAT. Additionally, students receive personalized counseling throughout the application to law school process as well as mentoring from members of the bench and bar.

This program is offered at no cost to accepted students.
