2013 Fellowship Applications Open!

by JY Ping in Announcements 
PreProBono is proud to announce that our 2013 Fellowship Program, which aims to send bright, public-interest-minded students to the top law schools in the country, is now accepting applications. 

Now in its third year, the Fellowship is looking to build on our overwhelmingly positive results. 13 of our 18 Fellows scored in the 80th percentile or higher on LSAT, with 7 achieving scores in the top 10 percent of all LSAT takers. Our Fellows have gained admissions to the top law schools in the country like Harvard, NYU, Columbia, Virginia, Berkeley, Cornell, and Georgetown.


Beginning this June, our Fellows will receive over 200 hours of intensive LSAT training, law school applications consulting, and personal statement editing. Fellows will participate in our summer public interest speaker series where they will meet with over 15 current practicing public interest attorneys. From October until next September, Fellows will help us build PreProBono’s programming, volunteering to further our organization’s mission and creating the next year’s Fellowship.

The deadline to submit an application is May 17, 2013 and admissions is rolling.

PreProBono Weekend Program – Columbia, Fall 2012

by alancheuk in Uncategorized 

After a crazy night at Prime Produce Prom, team PPB still managed to get their asses over to Columbia Law School on November 18th.  And its a good thing they did – 25 bright eyed prelaw students were ready to tackle some of the newest and toughest problem types on the LSAT.

And tackle they did.  It was a jam packed day of theory, group work, and problem solving.  There was so much to cover, that one student even wished we had cut the lunch break shorter to cram in more LSAT goodness.  Thanks you to all the students for showing up, working your tails off, and for the kind words.

“Today was great!”

“Very well done! Good workbook, detailed, great teacher, good team work activities.”

“Justin was absolutely fabulous.”
