Professional Law School Admissions Consulting In Minneapolis, MN

I am really pleased that I got to know of Juris through a friend and I decided to engage Juris for my JD applications.

I was quite impressed with Juris from the get-go. First of all, they are the top-rated law school consultants in the country. In addition to that, the note I received from them when I reached out to her was extremely personal and warm. It showed their genuine interest in helping candidates, even prospective clients who had not signed up with her yet.

The candidacy evaluation call was quite different. She provided a candid evaluation of my chances at different schools, she had done her homework on analyzing my resume and coming up with a plan of action to address weaknesses in my candidacy. She also provided an honest opinion on why different people choose to pursue law school and whether it made sense for me to do the same. Juris is quite selective in choosing their clients and they enjoy a bit of a challenge, which my application definitely provided.

Working with Juris Education was a pleasure and a true partnership. Here are a few things about them that I would like to share in my review:

1. They make you work and are on your toes to make sure you make progress - helps you not lose sight in the bustle of work and personal priorities
2. They have the experience and understanding of what the admissions committee value in a prospective student - which helps you clear the clutter and focus on the important parts of your story
3. They start early - extremely important to get ahead of the curve; also helps you plan out school visits and other things that can bolster your application
4. They are very methodical and structured - their succinct tutorials, reference materials, and project management tool help you keep on track
5. They are super accessible and extremely prompt in feedback - it feels truly collaborative and personal; I have been on one-on-one calls with Alice and Leslie for many hours to talk about my personal stories, education, work, and goals
6. They help you think about your own story without spoon-feeding templates - help you come out as a true one of a kind candidate
7. They are perfectionists - I have had at least 20 reviews of my resume and more than 6 to 7 edits on each of my essays for all of my 8 school applications
8. They help you get into the networking mindset while you are applying - through their former clients, existing clients, and affiliates (peer reviews, reports on on-campus visits, interview notes, etc.)
9. They go out of their way in many ways like helping candidates with their LSAT prep by providing the right resources
10. They are not machines, they care about their clients and do everything to accommodate their client’s requests - I had a pre-commitment after application deadlines which meant I needed to finish all my interviews in a very short window of time, and Alice helped me expedite the interview preparation in a way that worked best for me
11. They are excellent at helping candidates prepare for interviews - professional help with speech delivery, interview presence, and interview preparation through multiple mock interviews and feedback sessions
12. They do not stop at resumes, essays, video essays, or interviews, they help you through all that follows as well - scholarship negotiation, waitlist updates and even pre-JD preparation

As for my results, I got interview calls from all the schools I applied to, got accepted at 2 top-10 schools with scholarships, and was waitlisted at 2 other top-5 schools. It was a total shocker for me to have turned around my profile into a compelling application and been accepted at the schools of my dream.

I cannot stress enough how happy I am with Juris. They are true professionals but at the same time equally personal in their approach. Alice is a pleasure to work with and someone who I would love to be in touch with going forward.

Julie is simply incredible. She was an invaluable resource throughout the entire process. I was accepted to my target law school, which was quite a stretch given my unique background. It would not have been possible without Julie's sage advice and assistance. She is truly extraordinary!

I first met with the Juris team at a prospective JD students conference in Washington DC about 6 weeks out from my first application deadline, and I’m so glad that I did. I stopped by and told them about my specific questions/concerns (particularly about being a non-traditional applicant and working for a small/lesser-known law firm), and they answered my questions specifically and tactically in a way that instilled confidence in a potential professional relationship between us. Over the next several months, we worked together, which worked out phenomenally well because the two of us had identified specific areas so that I could use my time wisely. I could go on about how helpful my counselor was, but I think the most helpful areas/exercises related to crafting my story for business school in a compelling and succinct way. I had about a million ideas of how I could speak to my interests and experience, and she provided honest, constructive, digestible, and actionable feedback about which ideas were strong, and which I should cast aside. That front-end diligence helped me to build a strong foundation from which the rest of my application materials launched, and I ended up getting into 4 of the 5 schools I applied to (all but Harvard, which was a longshot from the get-go. If you’re dead set on law school and telling your story is one of your biggest concerns, I would definitely recommend calling up the Juris team. I couldn’t be happier with the results!
