Drury’s strong liberal arts tradition is excellent preparation for the rigors of law school. Students who apply to law school with a demonstrated ability to think critically, write effectively and express themselves clearly are stronger candidates for success. In parallel with a student’s chosen major, courses in these areas enrich one’s grasp of the foundations of law in society:
Recent Drury graduates have attended some of the nation’s finest law schools, including:
Washington University in St. Louis
Duke University
Boston University
Georgetown University
Students are encouraged to use their elective courses with some of the above.
Students interested in international law are strongly encouraged to take an additional year of a foreign
language beyond the general education requirement.
