Ringkasan program

The bachelor of science degree in paralegal studies is approved by the American Bar Association. The goal of the program is to prepare students for entry-level paralegal positions in the common areas of law practice. Paralegals are non lawyers, and therefore, are prohibited from the unauthorized practice of law. This program trains paralegals, and is not a program for training lawyers or legal administrators. Students pursuing a bachelor of science degree in paralegal studies are required to submit a paralegal portfolio at an exit interview with the program coordinator prior to degree conferral.
