DE EDITIONE about the issue

The Boston University Pre-Law Review is a student-run law journal, open to all Boston University undergraduates. Founded in 1991, the Pre-Law Review has continued to foster awareness and provide commentary on major issues facing the law and the legal profession through its publication. The Pre-Law Review is published once per semester and features a wide range of topics and our authors are given the freedom to write about anything as long as it pertains to the law.

All of our contributors and staff are undergraduates, many of whom will be applying to law school. However, the Pre-Law Review staff spans a variety of majors, schools, and class years, as no specific academic or experiential requirements are necessary to work on the Pre-Law Review. All that is expected of members is an interest in learning more about the law and a commitment to furthering the publication’s objectives by contributing one article per semester or assisting in the other aspects of the publication.
