Trials

This is a five-week pre-law program that takes place at either Harvard or New York University (they switch off years) to support underrepresented populations in their pursuit of law school and the passing of the LSATs. Throughout these weeks, the students in the program will be able to create custom study plans that allow them to effectively pass the practice LSAT exams that they sit through through their time in the program. In addition, students have the chance to attend lectures and lunches given by professionals in the field that each feature time for specific questions from students. Students are also given opportunities to see law in practice in either New York City or in Boston, depending on the location of the program that year.
