Program Description

3+3 B.A./J.D Dual Degree Program in Law
 

In conjunction with Albany Law School, The College of Saint Rose offers a special program, which facilitates the completion of both an undergraduate degree and the J.D. degree within a six-year period.

Students admitted to the program must attain a 3.2 GPA at the end of their first year and a 3.3 GPA at the end of their third year. They must also achieve a one-time or average score on the Law School Admission Test that is no lower than the median LSAT score for the prior year's entering class at Albany law School. Courses completed during the first year of law school will satisfy the remaining credits toward the degree.

This program is open to selected students earning an undergraduate degree in the following majors: American Studies; English; History; History/Political Science; Interdepartmental Studies; Mathematics; Public Communications; Religious Studies; Sociology; and Spanish.

Eligibility requirements are similar to those for the BA/MA degree described above and Albany Law School ultimately makes all admissions decisions.

Contact the Office of Undergraduate Admissions if you plan to pursue this dual degree program.
