Pre-Law Board of Advisors
The Pre-Law Advisory Board (PLAB) is a resource for the Loyola University Maryland. The members of the PLAB are stakeholders of Loyola who have a responsibility to provide input concerning the quality, form, and outcomes of Loyola’s undergraduate programs, and provide critical and useful feedback to the Pre-Law Advisor and to the Associate Dean of Social Sciences and Graduate Programs.
The Board provides recommendations to the pre-law advisor at Loyola to raise the academic climate for our undergraduate students and their faculty to enhance the number and quality of applicants into law school and related fields and to increase national visibility and prestige for Loyola University’s pre-law program.
The Board reviews and provides feedback to the Pre-Law Advisor on ways to improve the pre-law program at Loyola.
