Non-Traditional Law school route.

If you wanted to dip your feet into the pond a bit first, UMPI offers a Pre-Law minor: http://catalog.umpi.edu/preview_program....turnto=190

Thanks! 
I was looking into Liberty University at their pre-law degree, but then stumbled across SNHU/WGU. I signed up for WGU’s accounting degree, because I figured the tax portions could really help, but the transfer credit’s were fairly minimal. That’s actually how I found out about Sophia. I took College algebra, Statistics, Environmental science, intro to business. Then stumbled across SNHU, and noticed with their general studies degree I’d be able to transfer in max Sophia credits and all of my prior community college credits. I then un-enrolled from WGU.
The attorney I know out of Nashville did finance as a major, and on the Lsat he didn’t practice, and only scored a 145 haha. Left room for improvement.

Being non-traditional, I’m not too terribly concerned with going to the best of the best school, due to debt. I did criminal Justice, most 100-200 level courses dealt in criminal law. We reviewed criminal court cases, I’ve written 5,000+ word papers, I’ve cited sources.
With law school, keeping a planner is a key to survival and putting 2-4 hours, every day, towards it. For the next 3-4 YEARS. 
That’s your drops mostly, it’s a huge commitment and most get burned out.
Traditional law school still receives up to 25% drops 1L.

I was hoping someone would possibly have experience with ace credits and CBE, or had possibly tried that route before. 
UMPI is great for a school, and quite possibly with their cost I may very well go with them for a BLS, depending if there’s crazy hoops. I plan to take 30 more credit hours graded, I’ll have 60 total for the GPA calculator on LSAC.

If you messed up and know your GPA is terrible, you can go to TESU as a 113 credit hour transfer, and as long as you’re under 60 Graded credit hours, Lsac will not calculate your GPA. “Say it’s a 2.0?” 
That then doesn’t count against the school, and if you can nail a 165+ on the LSAT, you’re a shoe in. Once again might not hit a tier 14, but it’s very possible to overcome a low GPA.

@AlvinG, you can do a specific degree instead of a general studies degree at SNHU.  If you're just going for a general studies degree, they're too expensive.  I would suggest doing the UMPI BLS and you want to make sure to get at least 60 graded credits.  Another option for that is to do UMPI BLS, and then add a BA or BABA to that afterwards... You want to look at the institution and state requirements, some will only grade the last 60 credits and some grade everything.

Thank you. researching UMPI now, and another user pointed out that they do have a Pre-Law minor! 
I did notice SNHU was going to cost right at $9,900 for 30 credits, and that’s pretty pricey. Thankfully not as pricey as my local university cash cow.
