Pre-Law Studies

Law and those who practice it have gained a dubious reputation in the popular imagination of our day and age - perhaps because we all know that modern laws are complex and often confusing, and we hate that we need lawyers to help us move through the labyrinth. One can certainly make a decent living in the practice of law (although it is a myth that all lawyers are wealthy), but if you are interested in Covenant College, you are concerned about more than money. The calling of law has been, and still is, one in which Christians can serve their communities and their churches in significant and very important ways. In this regard, a Covenant education will give you an approach to your career that will help you to view your work in the context of God's plans and priorities. Covenant's pre-law program identifies courses and extracurricular experiences that attorneys and judges have indicated were helpful to them in both law school and the day-to-day workings of legal practice. The Pre-Law Society assists with aspects of law school preparation, including application workshops and LSAT study groups.
