Cleveland-Marshall College of Law and Ursuline Partner to Offer Joint Bachelor's / Law Degree Program
Cleveland State University’s Cleveland-Marshall College of Law and Ursuline College have partnered to offer students the opportunity to earn their law degrees more quickly and economically through a joint 3+3 Bachelor’s/Law Accelerated Degree Program.
Enrolling in this program, students will have the opportunity to complete both bachelor’s and law degrees in just six years instead of the traditional seven years necessary to complete four years of undergraduate studies and three years of law school. The senior year of the student’s undergraduate studies at Ursuline will coincide with their first year at Cleveland-Marshall, allowing participants to earn their undergraduate degree from Ursuline after their first year of law school studies.
“Ursuline is excited about the opportunity this new partnership presents to our students and prospective students. We look forward to a successful partnership with Cleveland-Marshall,” said Interim Vice President for Academic Affairs, Elizabeth Kavran.
“We welcome the opportunity to engage students passionate about studying law and alleviating some of their financial burden as they work toward their ultimate goal of a career in the legal profession,” said Cleveland-Marshall Dean Craig M. Boise.
For more information about enrolling in the 3+3 program, contact the Ursuline College admissions staff at 440 646 8108 or admission@ursuline.edu.
