Overview

The Legal Studies program is offered by Roanoke College.Roanoke's innovative curriculum emphasizes critical thinking, research and communication skills essential to working with clients, and building a strong legal case. With the campus conveniently situated in a judicial hub, Roanoke routinely places students in prime internships with federal judges, public defenders, police departments and U.S. Attorneys' offices.

The pre-law program eliminates roadblocks by pairing students with pre-law advisors, paying for students' testing fees and covering part of the cost of LSAT preparatory courses.
