The key in law school is learning your definitions cold. That means knowing definitions just like you know your name. Then learn how to IRAC your case briefs, and use that same approach to apply the elements of your definitions of law to the facts of your hypotheticals. NWCU is an outstanding law school and Prof. George is awesome!

Yes, also what the other comments are asking for as well...how much time do you spend during the week and weekend? Do you wish that you could study more hours than you are if you had extra time..? Anything else that requires your time in the direction of your studies....ie. other readings, podcasts, master classes, etc. I'm currently looking at Legal Eagle on RU-vid/online. Tests, essays, extra sources outside of NWCSL, thank you. I see other people share my sentiment that you are doing a wonderful-wonderful service of getting this information out. Cheers and a big THANK YOU!!!

@Rich_Harrison_MPH 3 года назад

The other two are Purdue University global and North Central University in California. I chose one of those two and I start in the fall I looked at the one you go to but I didn't like the funding policies that they had. Best of luck to you!

@michaelnones5489 3 года назад

what do you mean funding policies? just curious. did u go to concord?

@ssteele1 3 года назад

No federal financial aid available. You have to pay out of pocket. That's not a bad deal, as payments are as low as $325 per month, and you graduate with little to no debt. But, if you don't want to, or can't, absorb the cost up front, then this is not the option for you. Both Concord and JFK School of Law at NCU do offer federal financial aid. Otherwise, NWCU Law is a worthwhile option - especially with the potential to earn a JD with no debt on the back end.

@RM-eu8gi 3 года назад

@@ssteele1 @Sam Steele Concord is $50K tuition, JFK is $92K tuition... are you high? If you can't afford $325 a month....u have way bigger issues. Go ahead borrow 50k-100k, see how long it will take you pay it off (if ever). And good luck with PSLF! You're going to be a sad person, even if u do pass CA Bar exam - cause the income is not there.

@newagain9964 2 года назад

Hello. what do you mean u have to submit ALL CLASSES' case briefs at the same time? How are the classes on the same schedule? And do you think that is an effective way to learn? thx

@MacyySuee 2 года назад

The classes are taken concurrently just like any other school would be. To prevent people from trying to do 1 class at a time (which is not how it’s meant to be) you must submit the same type of assignments for each class together. So you don’t turn case briefs in until they are done for each class and you can submit them at the same time.

@AStafa-py8gh 3 года назад

Hi Macy, how many hours are you spending each day Mon - Thrus on your 4 classes? and roughly how much time are you spending the the weekends?

@MacyySuee 3 года назад

The school recommends you spend a minimum of 20 hours a week on schoolwork. I am a very fast reader which takes up a majority chunk of this time so I have found that I don't always have to spend that much time. Typically I spend 2-4 hours on classes on weekdays (2 hours in the morning, 2 hours in the evening) and another 8-10 hours split across the weekend (Fri-Sun)!

@justanotherhandle1 11 месяцев назад

When’s the best time to start so you’re learning alongside the live lectures?

@MacyySuee 2 месяца назад

I believe April and October are when new live lecture series start, but it really is not that important to determining your start date. I would recommend trying to plan your start date around when you would be taking your finals (the last 4 weeks of the program) because I personally do not want to be stressed over studying for finals around the holidays or at the start of the summer.
