    Post: DETC

    Posted by Iggyrip on 2/05/09


    I don't see why some people are so concerned about DETC
    accreditation for law schools. While I realize that it is
    a national accrediting agency, it does not mean much for
    law students other than allowing them to apply for federal
    loans. Concord and the others who are seeking acceptance,
    should be looking to California Bar approval and WASC
    accreditation. That would make a difference. Cal Bar
    accreditation would excempt first year students from the
    Baby Bar and assure future employers that the law school
    is up to Cal Bar standards. WASC accreditation is
    important if you want the degree to be of value other than
    for bar exam purposes. I realize online law schools need
    to start somewhere, but it should be important for
    prospective students to know they are paying a lot of
    money for accreditation that is of no real use. That is my
    two cents.
