I tried asking about that, but the answer I received was "Unfortunately not, we can only accept transfer units from someone who was enrolled in a Law School J.D degree program."

I'm taking my 1L finals next week and (if I pass), I'm going to look much more into transfer credits.
With their accreditation, NWCA has seen a dramatic increase in students. They are extremely hands off and I would suspect that would be in part due to the rise in students to manage as well as, in typical lawyer fashion, never provide information they aren't required to
I wanted a cheap option to further my resume. Instead of going with an MBA which are a dime a dozen, I chose this JD as it seemed more applicable to help understand our complicated, modern lives. Keep in mind lawyers are very 'snobbish' about your education and you likely will not see many financially rewarding job opportunities with this caliber of degree. As such, if I can shave off a year or two of work, that'd be amazing.
