Why did you choose UB School of Law? I chose UB School of Law because I attended UB for my undergraduate degree and I loved the community. The professors are dedicated, and the school offers so many programs and opportunities.

One piece of advice for accepted students: Plan your time. Law school is a huge time commitment, and it’s very important to keep yourself organized and be realistic with yourself. There will be nights you need to give yourself a break, and that’s okay. Burning out is real, so it’s important to keep on track with readings and studying, but don’t forget to make time for yourself in the process.

One fun fact about yourself: I could tell you anything you want to know about Taylor Swift.
