Brandeis U and Top Law Schools

<p>I really like Brandeis. I want to major in Political Science and Philosophy and then go on to Harvard Law. Do Brandeis grads generally do well in top tier law school acceptance? Who’s pre-law track/polisci majors are more prestigious: Brandeis or Bowdoin?</p>

<p>I don’t know (yet perhaps) about Harvard Law and I’m not prelaw myself, but I know anecdotally that there are lot of students with your interest at Brandeis, and Brandeis makes it easy to combine many interest areas like political science and philosophy or others. From people I know who are seniors this year, I know people who got into Georgetown and NYU for law school, and in a slightly different area, another member of my class I believe has been accepted to Harvard Business School.</p>

<p>Brandeis students have excellent rates of acceptance at top law, medical and other graduate schools. As an interesting example from elsewhere on this site, a list of colleges with the highest placement ratios at Harvard Law School in 2006 puts Brandeis in the top twenty. See:</p>
