INTRODUCTION

The objective of the School of Law is to inform individuals about the law and its effects on society. There is a strong focus on encouraging individuals to serve society’s legal needs with integrity and ethical values. Enrollment into the CalSouthern School of Law marks the beginning of a journey that takes the student to new and different areas of knowledge, new ways of thinking, and new ways of presenting ideas.

The study of law has always attracted individuals of great ability. Few professions demand as much in the development of one's intellectual powers and self-discipline as law. A primary purpose of the Juris Doctor (JD) degree is to provide the education and professional training for those who wish to become lawyers.

The School of Law is registered with the Committee of Bar Examiners of the State Bar of California as an unaccredited correspondence law school. This allows graduates of our JD program who have complied with Title 4, Division 1 of the Rules of the State Bar of California to sit for the California Bar Exam.

CalSouthern’s superior law programs provide graduates with a solid legal education and prepare graduates for entry into honorable professions requiring legal knowledge.
