I read somewhere that a lot of Pre-law summer programs for minorities are biased towards HBCU students.
I’m applying to this summer law program at Harvard/NYU but I go to Texas A&M (which is a PWI) do you think that my chances will be lower because of this?
https://trials.atfoundation.org/apply/eligibility says that “Our explicit aim is to support students of modest means whose racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic backgrounds are underrepresented in America’s top-rated JD programs” and that “We will give particular consideration to those candidates who attend colleges that traditionally send no more than one graduate per year to the partnering law schools. Each summer, the majority of students enrolled in Trials will hail from such underrepresented institutions.”
It may be that some of the HBCUs you noticed are such schools, and may have higher percentages of the targeted type of students, but such schools would also include some non-HBCUs, where the targeted type of students may be attending college.
