JD Program
By Jeanine - San Diego, CA on
July 15, 2008
Having tried traditional law school in the past, I found Concord's dedication to their student body's success inspiring. Once you are accepted, and the application process is rigorous, the faculty and staff are very supported and do everything they can to help you succeed. I enjoyed being able to take my exams in my pajamas from home and the fact that I could attend a lecture at 3am if I couldn't sleep. The flexibility is key for those of us that are trying to balance a full time job plus school. I hope that in the future, Concord will be able to be accredited. This is one drawback to this form of law school. It requires the student to take the First Year Law Student's exam and restricts the ability to practice in other states unless first passing the CA Bar exam. It would also be helpful if there was a way to download lectures onto a CD or iPod. I did enjoy the fact that you got to sample the teaching styles of professors from Law Schools from across the country, and you could listen to a lecture multiple times to get what you needed out of it. Overall, I was very pleased with my choice to earn my JD online through Concord.
Juris Doctor
By Samantha - California on
July 15, 2008
Concord Law School’s Juris Doctor Program allowed me to earn my law degree online. I never expected to earn my law degree online, and that is I why I looked in to Concord, it seemed worth looking into. The part-time program worked for me and the time frame I expected for myself to achieve my goals. The feedback I received helped me feel I was gaining a comprehension of the material I was learning. Truly thinking that I grasped the material built my desire and confidence to continue. However, taking classes via video lectures and online classes could sometimes prove to be an intimidating process. Never having been introduced to learning while being remotely connected to professors and other students was an interesting obstacle for me to overcome. In the end, getting used to learning via video was one obstacle I overcame, knowing that I was working towards something I really wanted. Some days it wasn’t’ ease, but I am glad I worked through it and achieved something.
