Pre-Law and Pre-Health Conferences @ Cornell

Every fall, Cornell Career Services welcomes law schools and health professions schools to campus for two conference events.  Each includes a large tabling fair featuring admissions representatives, alongside workshops, panels, and other informational sessions.  These events offer excellent opportunities for students and alumni at every stage to learn more about graduate programs, explore career options, and receive crucial insight into application processes.

Whether you just beginning to consider law school or medical school, or you are already well on your way to applying, you’ll find something here for you!  Explore to sections below for a full listing of this year’s events, and be sure to register on Handshake.

Note: In previous years, Cornell Career Services hosted a "Graduate and Professional School Fair", which showcased graduate programs in a wide range of academic disciplines. Beginning in 2024, this event has been replaced with the Pre-Health Conference and Fair, which focus specifically on health-related graduate programs (e.g. medicine, dentistry, physical therapy, etc.)

Individual School Visits 

In addition to the Pre-Law and Pre-Health Conferences, Cornell Career Services often hosts representatives from a wide range of graduate and professional programs (including PhD, MA/MS, MBA, MPH, MPA) for individual events throughout the year.  Sessions are held both on-campus and virtually and are posted to Handshake as they are organized.  Check back regularly for updates!

Graduate programs interested in connecting with Cornell students and alumni, including Cornell programs, are encouraged to register as employers on Handshake and to contact Alex Jablonski Assistant Director for Pre-Law and Pre-Graduate Advising, aj486@cornell.edu, for assistance.

The Pre-Law and the Pre-Graduate School modules in the Career Development Toolkit are also good resources for helping you manage the information-gathering and application processes.
