Meet Madison:
Hi ya'll! Making the move to California for law school at UCI was quite unexpected for me. As a first-generation law student, I didn't have much insight into out-of-state law schools. It was actually one of my undergraduate professors who encouraged me to consider UCI, saying it would be a perfect fit.
Attending the admitted students' weekend was a game-changer. I had the chance to chat with the ambassadors, and being from out of state, their perspectives really influenced how I saw UCI. What struck me the most was how genuine everyone was. They genuinely wanted to connect and share their experiences.
You'll hear time and time again about the welcoming and supportive community at UCI Law, and the truth is, that is the reality. There are so many people already in you corner wanting to help or offer guidance. So, don't hesitate to reach out if you need anything!
