How I Graduated from Law School with Honors After Failing Out featuring SeNita McRae

SeNita McRae intentionally attended Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) for all three of her degrees. 

After her family tried to convince her to attend law school, SeNita McRae decided to earn a Master’s Degree in Public Administration instead. This degree inspired SeNita to advocate for women’s rights which, again, made SeNita look toward law schools.  

After finishing law school and taking the bar exam while pregnant, SeNita found a unique way to combine her broadcast journalism, public administration, and law degrees. Currently, SeNita McRae uses her experience to modernize and streamline corporations as a Legal Operations Manager.
