Student's Quote
Selena Caldera, Spring 2021 Fellows
"The Legal Pathway Fellows program has helped me to consider my aspirations as possible - as a person with multiple marginalizations and barriers, economic and otherwise, even the possibility of entering this field initially seemed daunting. However, the support, advice, and guidance with the LSAT, applications, and the multiple difficulties along the way has prepared me to the point that I can hold my ground with other entering students, and has given me the confidence to 'reach for the stars'."
