<p>does applying for Pre-law decrease my chances of getting into a college as opposed to applying for a major in something like international studies?</p>
<p>There seems to be an implication here of something I personally don’t understand, but I’m sure others will. But what I did want to say is that one factor increasing or decreasing your chances is how impacted a particular major is at a particular school. If there are too many students in a department for the department to accomodate, it could be harder to get accepted into the major, and even accepted into the school. So you have some research to do there, school by school.</p>

<p>In general, no. For a couple of reasons.</p>
<p>First of all, pre-law isn’t a major. It’s more of a career advising program. Realistically, you can major in just about anything and still go to law school. It’s not even like going to medical school, which requires that you take certain courses, but allows you to major in anything.</p>
<p>In addition, at the majority of universities, in the majority of cases you apply for admission to the university, or perhaps to a particular school or college (such as the college of arts and sciences, or the school of nursing), but not to a major. There are exceptions to this general rule, so you do need to research the colleges and universities that you think you might be interested in, but in general, you’re applying to be an undergraduate, and not to be a history major.</p>
<p>You can major in anything and be pre-law. There are no specific major or course requirements.</p>
<p>A well-rounded education would be the best to prepare you for law school. Here’s an example of Chapman’s pre-law.
