What are the prerequisites for an online law degree?
As in traditional law school programs, admissions departments recognize that good lawyers come from all walks of life. There is no prescribed course of study to prepare for law school. Online law school students generally are mature individuals who already hold an associates or bachelors degree from an accredited institution (many hold a graduate degree in another discipline as well) and are employed full-time. Because the applicants have worked several years, sometimes decades, before applying to an online law school, their class ranking and SAT score from their undergraduate years is less important. You usually won’t be required to take the LSAT, but there may be some sort of entrance exam administered online.
