Law schools will look for leadership and professional experience on your resume. While you do NOT have to have direct "legal experience," you do need to demonstrate engagement both on-campus and in the community. Consider getting involved in student organizations, volunteering, getting a part-time job, securing an internship, and/or a research opportunity during your time at Loyola. Remember, "gap years" can be an opportunity to expand your professional experience, which often strengthens a law school application. Read below for resources to get involved and gain experience:
