Mid Atlantic School of Law. I checked with Concord. Tuition is a whole bunch more than Mid Atlantic and they (Concord) uses the same law books and same process. You WILL NOT be able to take the BAR but you certainly will learn the law. You have three years to complete the program. Fifteen courses - twelve required that cover all the relevant classes that you would take in a brick and mortar school, and then you choose three electives. Fifteen classes altogether. I completed the program and I have been involved in several cases of my own (Pro Se). Anyone can file a claim (civil or criminal). Civil is much different and a brief and all the document filings are all required. You do the same thing as a licensed lawyer except you cannot represent a client I court because you will not be licensed. The day IS coming when on-line degrees will be accepted for the BAR exam. It's just a matter of time. Recall back when students first start taking college courses on line and the brick and mortar school students laughed and said that the on-liners aren't getting REAL degrees. Well, times have changed. Many, Many more people are attending on line schools and getting certified, REAL degrees.. These are working people who have families and like you, can't afford the time or the money to go to a regular school. Believe me, I am confident I could take the BAR with my on line education and pass it (eventually). Even some Harvard graduates do not pass the bar on the first attempt. In fact, I would say a good majority don't. On line education in all disciplines is the thing of the future. Hell, who can afford to go to college? Going to a brick and mortar law school can cost you in the hundreds of thousands and FOR WHAT! The same education you get by studying and learning at home and just applying yourself.
