The library provides a lot of quality law databases for research purposes. Knowledge and usage of these databases will be helpful in your transition to law school as you will be using them in law school as well. To access these databases, click here
We will have the opportunity to meet with a librarian to go over these databases in much more detail.

The library also has law school guidebooks which outlines admissions information and requirements. The book allows you to easily compare law schools.

If you already know what type of law you want to study, try taking classes that emphasize those interests. (Ex: If you're interested in tax law, you may find Acct 451 Tax I to be beneficial to your interests.)

UWW Alumni
We are currently working with the Alumni Center to find contact information for UWW graduates who are/have been in law school so stay tuned for updates!

Professors
We highly suggest getting to know some your professors so you have someone who knows your academic work and effort well enough to write a good letter of recommendation for you.
