California online law students?

[adventurelarry]

I am looking for any other California online law students. Was curious about the different schools and CLEP tests taken to meet the entry requirements. Anyone here going into studying California law?
Thanks,
Larry

You bring up the very question I was going to post.

From what I understand so far, Norther Western is the best option. They either accept 60 units or an acceptable score on 3-5 specific CLEP test to be enrolled.

For Those Seeking Bar Eligibility -- Students seeking the Bachelor of Science in Law Degree with concurrent attainment of Juris Doctor Degree requirements and Bar eligibility must have completed 60 or more acceptable college semester units, or must as an alternative have adequate scores on anywhere from three to five selected and specific College Level Equivalency Program (CLEP) tests approved by the California Committee of Bar Examiners.

The California Committee of Bar Examiners and our school will accept adequate scores on each of three, or in some cases five, 90 minute CLEP tests in lieu of prior college credit. English Composition or English Composition with Essay must be taken and a score of at least 50 must be obtained. In addition, two other examinations each designed to correspond to semester courses of 6 semester hours each, or four other examinations each designed to correspond to semester courses of 3 semester hours each, can be selected from any of the following subjects:


· Composition and Literature (Humanities Examination Only)

· Foreign Languages

· History and Social Sciences

· Science and Mathematics

· Business


A score of at least 50 must be obtained for each. These scores will satisfy the college prerequisite requirements for enrollment in our school and California Bar law student registration.

Guess there is little interest in a legal career...

I don't know how relevant this may be to you, but I know someone who is taking the California Bar Exam right now in Oakland, Calif. He earned his doctorate of law through a distance learning college called the Oak Brook College of Law and Government Policy.
