This minor enhances your knowledge of the legal system and is meant for students interested in heading to law school. But if you’re just interested in legal issues or how the law affects society, this is a great minor to add.
Law schools do not require you to major in anything specific. They want students to explore their interests whether it be history, literature, math or science. Heidelberg's Pre-Law Advisor will provide you with one-on-one advice as well as references for law school.

Combine this minor with political science or criminology.
