ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ 3+3 Baccalaureate/Participating Law School Juris Doctor Agreements

ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ is entering into a number of 3+3 Agreements with excellent, American Bar Association-accredited law schools that allow qualified ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ students to attend one of the participating law schools and finish their degrees at both institutions within six (6) years total. This cuts one full academic year off of the usual requirement to complete both.

Qualified ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ students will complete three years of undergraduate studies at ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ before entering the first year of law school at one of the participating law schools. ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ students who have fulfilled their undergraduate degree requirements in their respective major will receive their ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ baccalaureate degree upon successful completion of that first year of law school.

That’s good news that only gets better: depending upon the law school, there may also be significant tuition savings benefits for qualifying ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ students.

Please note: the 3+3 Agreements currently involve ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ majors in Political Science, English, History, Philosophy, Criminology, Sociology or Psychology only. Further, these 3+3 agreements are rigorous, with strict academic criteria for success. Participation requires intellectual ability, perseverance, excellent grades, a qualifying score on the LSAT, and demonstrated maturity. These agreements do not guarantee recommendation by ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ for admission to one or more of the participating law schools, nor do they guarantee admission to those law schools. Participation is not for everyone, and not everyone who starts out will succeed. But the director of the ÌÇÐÄÊÓƵ 3+3 Committee, Prof. James T. Snyder, Esq., will be there with you each semester, checking your progress and making recommendations to let you know if you’re on track or not.
