3+3 Program

Through our 3+3 BA or BS/JD program, you can earn your bachelor’s degree and finish law school in only six years (one year less than the traditional path).

To qualify for this accelerated program, you must submit your application for law school by March 15 of your third year. You must have an undergraduate GPA of at least 3.5 and achieve an LSAT score equal to, or greater than, the law school’s first-year class median from the prior year. Successful applicants will receive a renewable scholarship of at least $40,000.

Our Law School Admissions Office is available to assist you at every step of the application process, and the application fee will be waived for applicants for the 3+3 program. In addition to the minimum GPA and LSAT score, all applications will be reviewed by the Law School Admissions Committee to ensure there are no character and fitness issues that would prevent admission to the bar.
