Visiting Northwestern Pritzker Law

There are various opportunities to connect with us and to learn about the Law School. We hope to meet you soon.

Student-Led Tours for Prospective JD Students

These hour-long sessions are conducted by current Northwestern Pritzker Law JD students, enabling you to learn about life at the Law School from those who were in your shoes just a couple years ago. Throughout the tour and afterwards, you will have the opportunity to ask questions of these student leaders.

Registration is required to ensure we provide you with the best tour possible. After submitting the brief registration form linked to your chosen tour date, you'll receive detailed confirmation materials. Please save this information as you plan for your visit.
