Schuyler Atkins

Before attending Stanford Law School, Schuyler earned a Bachelor's in women, gender, and sexuality studies from Washington University in St. Louis, where she was a John B. Ervin Scholar. Schuyler's passion for mentorship took root as an undergraduate, including a full junior year in Toulouse, France, where she studied sociology, anthropology, and history at a public university. While there, she tutored French students learning English, pursued an independent study in French theatre, and interned at a local children's theatre, helping direct and produce a play. 

After graduation, Schuyler moved to Washington, D.C., to work at Capital One in human resources. It was there that she became inspired to apply to law school and use the power of law to help those who are most marginalized in society. At Stanford, Schuyler led the Stanford Law Review's online operation as Online Editor-in-Chief of Vol. 74. Through the Immigrants' Rights Clinic, she worked as a student attorney and helped secure asylum for a non-binary client fleeing persecution. Schuyler returned to the firm where she had spent a summer as a summer associate after graduating, joining WilmerHale in New York as a litigation associate, where she worked on complex litigation matters. 

Schuyler’s goal is to help students make the best decision for themselves when it comes to law school. From discussing school choices to submitting that final application, Schuyler is committed to walking with students at every step of the way. Her goal is to reduce overwhelm and stress as much as possible for students. Schuyler is passionate about connecting with people who are interested in pursuing an education and career in law, and she is excited to help students get into law school. 

A fun fact about Schuyler is that she decided to start taking bass guitar lessons in 2024. She now sings and plays bass in a couple of bands in NYC in her free time. Schuyler loves music and all types of theatrical performance and loves to connect with other lovers of music and theatre.
