This program, approved by the American Bar Association, prepares individuals for careers as paralegals or for positions where organizational and analytical skills as well as knowledge of the law and legal procedures are necessary. Paralegals, or legal assistants, work under the supervision of an attorney or perform work for which an attorney is responsible. This program does not prepare students to practice law. Persons interested in the Certificate in Paralegal Studies should contact the Legal Studies Program; those interested in the bachelorŐs degree may contact the Office of Admissions, CAPA, or the Legal Studies Program. In both programs LS 301 must be taken first; LS 304, second. They may be taken concurrently. A grade of C or better in each is required for the student to continue. Writing is an integral part of each paralegal course.
