WHO WE ARE

Minorities in Pre-Law is a non-profit association dedicated to promoting the needs of minority students hoping to enter the legal field, increasing the number of minority students that go on to work in the legal field, and helping students excel academically, succeed professionally, and positively impact the community.

Law is the least diverse profession in the United States, largely due to unequal access to legal education and many racial minorities, women, and members of the LGBTQ+ finding themselves intimidated by a profession that has been historically exclusive toward them. We aim to act as the gateway between minority students and their futures in law by working with our branch student organizations to connect students with discounts on legal exam preparation, internships and mentorships, encouraging minority students to pursue judicial careers, and more! 

We currently have branches at the University of South Florida and the University of Tampa, and are working to continue expanding and promoting diversity in the face of adversity across Florida and the United States.

Learn more about us today by exploring our site and attending events with our student organizations. We are looking forward to meeting you and having you be a part of our wonderful community!
