Pre-Law Club

Mission Statement:

The Pre-Law Club was founded in 2013. Over the years, Pre-Law Club has helped students prepare for law school and gain knowledge of their professional career options. The club also focuses on helping students network within the surrounding legal community, build connections and engagement with other RSOs and the general ISU community, and understand their own potential.

The Pre-Law Club is dedicated to giving its members the opportunities and knowledge to step into their chosen legal path with confidence. Our club is open to all majors, minors, and grade levels with no requirements to join as we encourage a versatile membership body. The club hosts events geared toward professional development and networking, in addition to character building by way of community engagement. We hold information sessions for our members who are interested in law school, while supplying equally beneficial general information about the legal field and career opportunities to all members. Pre-Law Club membership is a steppingstone to your future, join today!
