Requirements for a Minor in Pre-Law

Through exposure to both classical liberal arts and applied fields of study, including political science, psychology, sociology, and criminal justice, Keuka College’s pre-law minor provides the necessary foundation if you wish to pursue law school and law-related careers. This hands-on minor prepares students in writing, critical thinking and reasoning, and offers classes that range from American government to predatory crime and violence.

The courses recommended in the list below are the minimal recommendations: the pre-law adviser will work with students one-on-one to develop a four year curriculum best suited to their interest and goals. In addition, you can complete Field Periods with law offices, district attorneys, public defenders, and organizations in the criminal justice system.
