Choosing A Law Program From Barre
The subject matter does not change by location: contracts, torts, civil procedure, constitutional law, legal research and writing, and clinical or externship placements. What changes is how you take it. Ask each college whether the program holds accreditation from the American Bar Association’s Section of Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar, how much of the coursework is delivered online, and which components require you on campus. Credit transfer is decided by the receiving institution and genuinely varies, so request a written transfer evaluation before you enroll.
