The Black Pre-Law Association is a student group at The University of Pennsylvania that aims to provide those with law school aspirations with encouragement, motivation, and access to the multiple resources that will establish them as competitive candidates for law school. It hopes to educate members on current legal matters and trends so as to improve understanding of the field of law and inform the choice to enter a corresponding line of work. BPLA facilitates networking and mentorship opportunities that create supportive and information-sharing relationships with other law professionals that are underrepresented minorities.
