Queens University of Charlotte can help you prepare for law school by offering a broad-based program designed to develop the skills you will need in law school and beyond. Law schools want a person who has been broadly educated and Queens is an excellent place to get such an education. The results of our program speak for themselves. Approximately 75% of Queens students who apply to law school are accepted.
The law program at Queens consists of two concentrations or minors, which can be done with any major. We do not have a Pre-Law major at Queens because law schools do not like such programs. They prefer a person who is broadly educated in a traditional major. Some of the most common majors pursued by Pre-Law students at Queens are Political Science, Philosophy, History, English,Business Administration and Communications, but any major is acceptable.
