Pre-Law Student Clubs
Central Michigan University offers hundreds of registered student organizations, providing students with numerous opportunities to engage beyond the classroom.
Involvement during the undergraduate years is an important aspect of law school preparation, as it helps students develop leadership, communication, teamwork, and service-oriented skills valued by law schools.
​
Students interested in legal careers may choose to participate in pre-law–focused organizations for targeted professional development and exposure to legal topics. However, meaningful involvement in non–pre-law organizations is equally valuable and allows students to pursue personal interests while building a well-rounded profile for law school admission.
