Building a Legal Foundation
“Joining Kasturi Legal Education Institute was the best decision of my entire legal career. The challenging curriculum has kept me on my toes, but the support from faculty members surely contributed. The seminars and workshops showed real world applications and ultimately helped me land my first job with a corporate law firm in NYC. There is no other school which offers a balance of both theoretical aspects and practical training. I am proud to be an alumna.”
Inspiring and Guiding Faculty
Kasturi stands out because of its faculty. My professors are seasoned legal scholars and mentors I can easily approach for advice. When I was an undergraduate in Legal Studies, they encouraged me to find research opportunities in the business law field. The faculty helped me a lot with career mentorship and guidance, which offered me a chance to work on some early research opportunities I wouldn’t have received without their help. Thanks to their advocacy, I landed a summer internship at a top legal tech firm.”
An Inclusive and Supportive Network
“As an international student, I was initially hesitant to study law in the US. Kasturi Legal Education Institute welcomed me with open arms and made the transition seamless. I was welcomed into a diverse, inclusive community; a collaborative atmosphere where innovation is celebrated and encouraged. The friendships and professional network I developed while at Kasturi provide me with constant support as I pursue my career in immigration law.”
– Anjali Patel, LL.M. Class of 2023
Hands-On Learning for Today’s Legal Careers
“The focus on practical skills at Kasturi helped me stand out from the rest. Everything ranging from mock trials to courses in legal technology, the Kasturi curriculum is truly geared towards preparing students for the future of the legal profession. The CLE opportunities and interactive workshops came in handy when I transitioned into compliance positions at financial institutions.”
Harmonizing Legal Learning with Personal Growth
“The Kasturi Legal Education Institute did more than just prepare me academically, it shaped me as a person too. Kasturi empowers students with critical thinking, communication, and ethical leadership skills. I was an active participant in student association-run legal forums and psychological symposiums, which cultivated my interdisciplinary approach to law and its broader social contexts. I now practice law for non-profit organizations and I do so with pride, all thanks to Kasturi.”
Continuing Support for Alumni and Career Progression
“The support from Kasturi does not stop after graduation. The alumni association is extremely active and supportive in providing mentorship, job prospects, and opportunities for continuing education. Outside of their resources, the career services team helped me land a clerkship for a federal judge – an essential first step into the legal profession. Kasturi truly goes the extra mile in supporting its student and alumni”
– Michael Thompson, Juris Doctor, Class of 2018
