Concord just graduated its first class of JD

I was reading the bios of Concord's graduates and they have rather impressive credentials. Many of them are graduates of national universities and chose Concord for its flexibility.

I really hope that ABA will eventually reconsider their accreditation with Concord. It seems like Concord produces a legit academic program.

However, Concord has to produce a higher percentage of passing scores on the bar examination for them to be taken seriously.

 

Is it true that Concord is "the nation's only entirely online law school"????? Aren't there a couple of others??

 

Homer: Other DL Law Programs utilize internet technology, however none to quite the level of Concord. Each week, Concord offers a real-time audio lecture from a professor and then students, also in real-time, submit questions in an attempt at a cyber-Socratic dialogue.

Concord students also take their quizzes online and keep track of their hours and assignments via the internet as well.

 

Matty, Thanks for the information. I wasn't aware of the synchronous deal........nice!

 

There is an article about Concord's first graduating class in the December issue of the American Bar Association Journal.
