The panel brings together KU Law's associate dean for admissions and KU's pre-law advising lead with two law-school deans. For students considering legal education, the lineup offers a chance to hear about applications and preparation from several professional perspectives and to ask questions of the panel.
Admissions, advising and law-school leadership
Professor Amii Castle, who is with both the KU School of Law and the KU School of Business, moderates. The panel includes Stephen W. Mazza, dean and professor at KU Law; Steven Freedman, associate dean for admissions at KU Law; Jake Brillhart, lead advisor with Jayhawk Pre-Law Advising; and Lou Mulligan, dean at the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Law.
The mix connects advising and admissions with law-school leadership at KU and UMKC. Panelists are scheduled to discuss applying to law school and preparing for legal education, with questions from students included in the format.

Exploring is a valid starting point
KU students are invited whether they are exploring law school, preparing for it or already applying. The calendar identifies both undergraduate and graduate students as target audiences. For undergraduates unsure whether their current field fits, Jayhawk Pre-Law Advising notes that KU pre-law students come from nearly every major and that any KU undergraduate degree can be a route to law school through courses and electives.
The panel is a group discussion, not an advertised one-to-one application appointment. Students looking for more tailored guidance can also consult Jayhawk Pre-Law Advising, which describes its work as specialized advising and coaching for KU undergraduates exploring, preparing for and applying to law programs.

Choose a question that fits your stage
A student just considering law school might ask about preparation, while someone closer to applying may want to raise an application question. The event description confirms that students can put questions to the panel, but does not specify a separate question period or promise individual application reviews.
