All programs and activities of the CUNY BMI Rising Scholars of Justice Program are open to all academically eligible students, faculty, and staff, without regard to race, gender, national origin, or other characteristics.
Our Mission The award-winning CUNY BMI Rising Scholars of Justice Program aims to diversify the legal profession by preparing John Jay students for success in law school or in the legal profession.
This goal is met by identifying students in their college years and providing them with holistic year-long academic and professional support, early exposure to the study of law, and assistance with the law school admissions process.
