I hope to attend Lehigh University starting fall 2018 and plan to major in Accounting and Finance, I was wondering if I can do both of those while also following their pre law track or if that is not possible?
There is no pre-law track at any university. Major in whatever and take courses that emphasize writing and critical thinking.
