Hello Illini! 3 days to go and counting…
The Law Fair is a great opportunity to ask informative questions about schools you are interested in, discover new schools to consider, demonstrate your interest, and make a great first impression on admissions representatives. Here are some potential questions you might find helpful to ask…
-
- What are some qualities or characteristics you are looking for in law school applicants?
-
- What kinds of experiential learning opportunities do you offer students?
-
- What might my path look like at your school if I am interested in (blank) law?
-
- What kind of scholarships are available to students?
-
- How are your students prepared for the bar exam?
-
- Why did you decide to work at the school? (or if you know the admissions rep attended that law school, you may ask why they attended that school)
-
- Is there a way to get in touch with current students for informational interviews?
-
- How accessible are faculty?
-
- What is your school’s policy for evaluating multiple LSAT scores?
For more potential questions, see LSAC’s list of suggested questions for law fair attendees.
TIP: Take notes! If you are applying this cycle take notes to remember the information you learn, consider asking the same question(s) in each chat room and compare answers later.
TIP: Make sure you note which representative(s) you talked to for future reference and follow-up!
TIP: Make time to review profile pages and chat with 1 or 2 schools you haven’t considered before – you may be surprised what you learn!
