Asha Rangappa ‘96, is the Dean of Admissions at Yale Law School and a former FBI agent..

Q. Why did you choose to go to law school?

A. I was one of the people that I try to now counsel, in the sense that I always knew I wanted to go to law school and I didn’t think much beyond it. I wanted to be a prosecutor. At least I will say for myself that I thought I wanted to be a lawyer, and that was a good reason to want to go to law school. I didn’t really question that.

I did want to take time after college though, and I wanted to go abroad. I applied for fellowships. I went to Bogota, Colombia. This was the late nineties. It was a little bit of a crazy time. Pablo Escobar had been killed in 1992. A year abroad in between was really one of the best things that I did. It really went outside my comfort zone. It may have set the stage for choices I made later. It was great for me to know that I could do it.
