Pre-Law Certificate Program

UAH's Pre-Law Certificate Program is designed to provide students guidance in taking classes that will not only assist them in getting into law school but also prepare them for success once they get there.

The Pre-Law Certificate Program can be completed in conjunction with any combination of major and minor. Many of the program's classes will also satisfy Charger Foundations, so students may be able to complete the program with few, if any, classes beyond those already required for a UAH degree.
