Welcome to Pre-law at Oakland University
Pre-law studies at Oakland University offer an academic focus that is interdisciplinary in nature. Offered to all students, this course of study is a compatible addition to many degree programs. It is intended for students who are interested in applying to law school and who wish to pursue careers in law.

Students who are considering pre-law studies are encouraged to fully explore the contents of this site, which not only provides valuable information about  the requirements involved, but also information and guidance to help you determine whether or not law school is the right place for you. Students who have already made the decision to apply to law school following graduation will find valuable links and resources to help them navigate through the application process.

Please review the site’s contents in full before contacting a pre-law adviser to discuss enrolling in the concentration. Exploring each topic will inform and prepare you for a more productive meeting.
