Interested in Going to Law School?

Applying to law school is exciting, but it costs a lot, both financially & emotionally. It takes a long time and can be really stressful. These resources, along with BW faculty and staff, can help you navigate this complex process.

INTERNSHIP AND VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES WITH THE LEGAL AID SOCIETY OF CLEVELAND. Are you interested in getting some experience helping clients who need legal assistance? The Legal Aid Society of Cleveland has two opportunities. 1. You can apply for an internship that focuses on administrative tasks, non-profit work, and poverty law, and 2. You can volunteer anytime for their Brief Advice Clinics: indicate that you're a "paralegal" or "law student" in the drop-down menu when you sign up to volunteer, but in the comments section, explain that you are a BW undergrad. This is a rare opportunity that we have created for BW students.  For more information about qualifications before you apply, contact Professor Whitney Mannies at wmannies@bw.edu.
