High School Summer Law Program

Discover a career in law.

At the NSLC on Law & Advocacy, you’ll step into the shoes of a trial attorney as you learn courtroom procedure, examine evidence, and prepare to argue a challenging murder case.

I had the best time here. I’m so glad I decided to attend. I made friends I will never forget and now have a good idea of what I want to do with my future.
