Law schools do not require one specific major. Instead, they seek evidence of a rich, liberal arts education. They expect students to have strong skills in three major areas: comprehension and expression in words, critical understanding of the human institutions and values with which the law deals, and creative power in thinking. Ohio Wesleyan University helps prepare them in all of these areas. Options available to students planning to go to law school include traditional majors such as history, English, economics, and politics and government, as well as supplementary course work to help them to prepare for the Law School Admission Test. An interdepartmental pre-law major also is available. For students who major in pre-law, they will complete a second major in a traditional course of study as well as core courses in English, philosophy, history, economics, and politics and government. Students will take six electives to complete their major, all chosen with an eye toward breadth and depth of preparation and in careful consultation with their advisor.
