According to US News,\n\n1. Lewis and Clark College (Northwestern) (OR)\n2. Vermont Law School\n3. Pace University (NY)\n\nI've included a couple of links to a law school discussion board that discusses this topic.

The only thing good about New York state would be New York City. You could also talk about Colleges in NY, like Syracuse and NYU.

you would have to contact a local university and find out what classes from your previous law degree are still valid here and what others you would have to take.i'm guessing you might have to retake the basic classes such as government,english and history.and then of course take the bar exam to be able to practice law here.best option would be to discuss that with a local college counselor.best of luck to you.

I would check with the school you trained at.  even if it is not from the same area, they should know NYC law firms to refer you to. \n\nalso, ask the law firms if you can talk to a couple paralegals to get their opinion.\n\ngood luck.

There is no specific major required for those wishing to attend law school.  My sister just graduated from law school and she majored in economics.  I'd recommend participating in activities that might appeal to any law schools that you apply to, such as joining the debate team or finding out if there is a pre-law fraternity or club that you can join.  Also, it would be a good idea to get a job or volunteer at a law firm or other organization that provides legal services.  This will give you an idea of what it's actually like to work as a lawyer, and it will also give you the opportunity to make valuable contacts within the legal community.  But the best advice I can give you would be to speak with a pre-law advisor if your school has one.  They'd be the most qualified to answer your questions.

so if you want to be an attorney i would recommend majoring in international relations with a political science minor or public administration minor. International studies/relations at my school is what most take in efforts to become a lawyer. Once you get your undergraduate degree in international relations you have to apply to a law school and take the LSAT prior to entry of the law school.   \n\nlook to colleges with a great Liberal Arts Dept. and most universities in the U..S have websites where you can see the majors and minors they offer.\nhope that helped!

Hold your horses there, Law school is grad school, unless you're in Canada, where you can obtain a Bachelors of law, you need to finish 4 whole years of college doing something ELSE (usually political science, journalism, something related to law, but that is in no way required), before you do another 4 years of law school. Some colleges let you do coursework over the summer for credit, but it usually pays to wait it out and go with the expected flow. Do your best in high school, get into a good college and follow their pre-law or political science program (I'm polisci myself, going to go to law school in 2010) then apply to good law schools, like Harvard or Yale, or if you can't cut that, UCONN law is great.\n\nGood luck.

There really isn't a specific "pre-law" program that law schools want you to complete before you apply for admission to law school.  They will accept students from just about any undergraduate major, depending on your grades, LSAT scores, and other variables.

Here is a list of law schools, then maybe look up each one that interests you individually:  http://www.law.warwick.ac.uk/lcc/lawschools.html

my friend went there for his law degree. he has a 3.8 gpa and received a scholarship there. maybe 5 on the scale. scholarships would have to be 8.

Well a good law school would be the Dickinson school of law in carlisle, pa its actually penn states law school but is on dickinson colleges campus so shares the Dickinson name.  Law schools do have specialties, just as practicing lawyers do. These range from environmental law to corporate law and more

You probably can't apply to those schools without having an LSAT score already in place. I couldn't apply to the law school that I am currently attending without having taken the LSAT before applying.

Try Hunter College, if you are looking at a NY area.  It's a CUNY school but it's got good reputation.

NYU...New York University.

If you are still a high school student, you need to take a rigorous high school program and then select an undergraduate major and institution that will prepare you for law school.\n\nI think that you may be several years away from making a decision on law schools so focus on your present education.\n\nBest wishes
