Pre-Law Advisor Release
When you register for the LSAT online, PLEASE consider authorizing the release of your LSAT score to your UM prelaw advisor. This information assists in following admission trends to share with other UM students.

The Lawyer's Role In Society
Carved in stone above the columned entrance to the U.S. Supreme Court is the phrase, "Equal Justice Under Law". Assuring justice through the rule of law is the work of the country's nearly one million lawyers.

Lawyers and Their Skills
There are important skills and values, and significant bodies of knowledge that you can acquire prior to law school and that will provide a sound foundation for a legal education. These include analytic and problem-solving skills, critical reading abilities, writing skills, oral communication and listening abilities, general research skills, task organization and management skills, and the values of serving faithfully the interests of others while also promoting justice.
