The Law Student Division is the national forum for law students across the country. Established in 1968, the Division strives to further the purposes and goals of the American Bar Association, particularly to promote full and equal participation in the profession by minorities and women; to represent law students in the Association and to represent the Association to law students; to help shape the policies and priorities that affect legal education; and to create a deliberative forum for the exchange and expression of law student views and a voice to advocate those views.

Today, the Division represents more than 50,000 law students across the country from 188 ABA-approved law schools and is dedicated to give you a variety of valuable services and products, custom designed to meet your needs. From award winning publications that offer insights, advice and the latest news on the legal profession to a variety of networking opportunities that help you build contacts and make the most of your legal education. Check out the sections, divisions and forums, networking opportunities, valuable discounts and services, comprehensive publications, opportunities for contests, and meeting attendance to build your network.
