Other online schools have come and gone, how is St. Francis different?
As we hope you can tell, St. Francis takes an entirely different approach to legal education. We founded St. Francis based on our belief that it is possible to deliver a better legal education more quickly and more efficiently than traditional law schools. Of course, part of our efficiency comes from our ability to deliver our curriculum in an online format. Nonetheless, the online law school industry has traditionally been dominated by poor quality institutions. We believe the subpar quality of such institutions can be attributed to two main factors: 1) the poor quality of their faculty members; and 2) their generous admission policies (i.e., they admit almost everyone who applies). St. Francis is different. Not only is our financial infrastructure akin to a traditional law school, but we focus on qualityboth in our student body and in our faculty. We carefully select our students and we are completely comfortable boasting that our student body is much smaller than other institutions.
