The ÃÛÌÒµ¼º½ Pre-Law Advantage

ÃÛÌÒµ¼º½ offers a pre-law minor designed to prepare students for success in law school. Thanks to ÃÛÌÒµ¼º½â€™s partnerships with law schools like Gonzaga, students can take advantage of unique opportunities like the 3 + 3 program.

The 3 + 3 program allows students to complete their undergraduate and law degrees in just six years instead of the traditional seven. Here’s how it works: students spend three years at ÃÛÌÒµ¼º½, then transition to Gonzaga School of Law. Their first-year law school courses also count as electives for their ÃÛÌÒµ¼º½ degree, saving both time and money.

Eligible students receive priority admission consideration at Gonzaga, provided they meet GPA and LSAT requirements. This partnership opens doors to legal education while reducing the cost and duration of academic study.
