Building on John Jay College’s commitment to educate traditionally underrepresented groups and increase workforce diversity, the Pre-Law Institute and Center for Post–Graduate Opportunities (PLI/CPO) facilitates admission to law schools and graduate schools and offers access to fellowships and scholarships through strategic programs and resources. We envision a pipeline of students and alumni who identify their interests and reasons for pursuing a post-graduate experience, make informed career choices and continually develop skills which allow them to function as lifelong learners and critically-thinking citizens.
PLI/CPO programs and resources include:
• Individual advisement
• Judicial internships
• Individual guidance in developing personal essays and applications
• An introduction to the rigor and discipline required to succeed in a law school or graduate school setting
• Professional networking opportunities
• Preparation for the LSAT or GRE
We are open and available for zoom and phone appointments!
