The ILR School’s interdisciplinary curriculum gives students the freedom to explore many interests, and law is one of the most popular. Approximately 23%-25% of ILR undergraduates pursue law school within five years of graduating, with many applying to law school in two to three years after graduation.
ILR alumni work in many areas of the law, including tech, health care, immigration, transportation, natural resources and criminal defense, while others who earn a law degree, forgo practicing law and instead thrive in business, finance, the entertainment industry or as leaders of professional sports organizations.
