The Texas Young Lawyers Association (TYLA) received a $45,000 grant from the Texas Bar Foundation to create a website aimed at educating prospective law students on the law school process from start to finish, according to a press release.
Expected to launch this spring, the website will break down barriers faced by nontraditional and first-time law students by providing practical information on all aspects of legal education in videos and texts featuring experts from law schools across the state, according to a press release. Topics will include the law school applications process, pre-admissions tests (e.g., the LSAT), financing costs, first semester challenges, the Socratic method law professors use, extracurriculars, bar exam prep, and legal careers.
