At Walmart, we believe our legal workforce should reflect broader American society in all its diversity. That's why we decided to invest in pipeline programs like the Law Preview National Diversity Scholarship Fund. The NDSF is a unique opportunity to improve the academic performance of law students from diverse backgrounds during a critical step in their development -- the all-important first year of law school. It is our hope that the diverse students we sponsor today will excel academically and, as a result, enjoy rich and successful legal careers tomorrow. We are proud to participate in this pipeline diversity program, and we encourage our fellow corporate colleagues to consider joining us as we help to diversify the American legal profession.
I am unaware of my rank but I received a 3.78 this semester!!!! Law Preview was AMAZING...I don't think I would have been nearly as prepared for the challenges that I was going to face without this course (as well as another prep course that my law school offered). I would recommend Law Preview to each and every person entering law school! The best $1300 I've ever spent.
