Recognizing that there is a shortage of students with different backgrounds and lived experiences entering the field of law, the School of Law created the Discover Law Undergraduate Scholars Program to provide an immersive experience for undergraduates interested in pursuing a career in law, expose students to critical thinking and help them develop reading and analytical skills, and provide an in-depth and thorough experience in a four-week residential summer program.

This program is at no cost to participants. It is intended for undergraduates from underrepresented and/or under-resourced backgrounds, including students who are first-generation college students, are Pell-eligible, military veterans, or economically disadvantaged according to income guidelines set by the New York State Education Department. In addition, you must have completed your freshman or sophomore year, but will not commence your junior year before the end of the program.
