the Cost of Law School

This is the cost of tuition per semester for a non-ABA accredited Law School. That cost reflects 12 credit hours. Full time tuition is $10,600 per semester. The cost also reflects all technology fees and other fees. It does not include housing or any other services.

A fairly good school, however, graduates can only sit for the bar in Massachusetts or Connecticut. There are aspects of the school that seem slap-dash, with classes being added or withdrawn at the last minute, grades being collected and released to students slowly and haphazardly. While there are benefits to attending such a tiny school, the faculty is closely knit, so if you have a problem with a teacher, you may be less likely to get it resolved in a professional manner.

I'd advise anyone thinking of attending a non-accredited law school to definitely consider other options. Being at a non-accredited school will severely, severely limit your options. Although the cost is significantly less than an accredited-school, the prestige is really what you lack. Don't expect to find work as an attorney right out of a non-accredited school. Starting again, I would certainly choose to attend an accredited school so my education would be really worth something in the field.
