thread_title: List of schools

message: Do these exist outside the U.S.? The hatline says the main article is "Law School in the United States," so I infer the comments here apply only to the U.S. I think either there should be a cited mention that the U.S. is the only country with them (which seems unlikely to me), a discussion of them elsewhere (even if rudimentary for now), or it should be moved to Correspondence law school in the United States."

replies: text: From what I've been able to gather, there are correspondence law schools incorporated outside the US, but their primary market for students is the US because of liberal laws like in California that let these students take the bar. I doubt British or other common law jurisdictions are as generous about their bar exams. Wl219 16:38, 23 June 2007 (UTC)

text: Correction - I see that Open University in the UK awards an undergraduate bachelor of laws degree, but I don't know if that will qualify a student to become a barrister. Wl219 16:43, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  yes, the article is totally Americano-centric, as there are many correspondence law schools in other countries, which grant law degrees. I will try to amend it. --Karpada 10:46, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Outside the U.S.? 

message: I was enrolled in Northwestern California School of Law and was doing pretty well, but withdrew over family obligations and the death of my dog. Ripped me apart. I really enjoyed it and the staff was great and they know all of the "loopholes." I requested that my first year be deferred, and they know how to do that and readjusted my start date to give me another chance. Great experience and some day I hope to go back.
But...in reading some of their requirements and benefits, I believe that Texas also offers/confers/recognizes an on-line law degree with the ability to practice law. Wikipedia's entry states that California is the only state that allows this. If this has changed since 2006, I'm ignorant of the facts, but someone with more time and gumption could look into it.
If this all sounds like I'm a pitchman, so be it. So sue me.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.229.17.111 (talk) 06:56, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  My two cents 

message: Wikipedia Discussion Page Insert on 8/22/2010 by Online Law Student. 
Yesterday I made significant changes to the article entitled "Correspondence Law School." These changes, first and most importantly, provided important factual information regarding distance learning legal education that was not in the prior draft of the article. The changes I made also involved the correction of several erroneous statements in the prior draft. And lastly, I reorganized the article's presentation format to made it rational.
I have discovered that all of my changes have been deleted and the prior draft, including its erroneous factual statements, has been reinserted.
My only reasonable action to take in this situation, obviously, has been  to reimpose my draft, which I have done. If the materials in my draft are removed again, I will pursue a complant with the Wikipedia appeal structure because it is clear to me that any future deletion of my additions and corrections will be improper.
I also intend to inform the California State Bar of this matter. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.108.248.240 (talk • contribs) 20:04, 22 August 2010
:Reimposing your draft is not your only reasonable action available, but it's not the worst action you could take.  Feel free to inform any outside body you think necessary, but please be careful how you couch your intent on article and user talk pages.  This project has a stringent policy regarding legal threats.  Please read and understand that policy.  Thanks  Tiderolls 20:24, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Online Law Student edits 

message: It would be nice if someone could look up the current state bar policy on sitting for the state bar exam for each state in regard to correspondence/online law schools.  I would propose the chart would have under the left column "state" the second column would be "permits graduates from correspondence law schools to sit for the bar"  (yes or no) and perhaps a column listing those law schools whose graduates have sat for the bar in each of the states that permit such and whether or not they passed.  That last one is probably a tall order but with all the people who go on Wikipedia surely they will eventually accomplish this.  This would make this article eminently more useful than it currently is which only vaguely alludes to a the fact that some do and some do not.  This is like an article on gemstones that mostly says some gems are valuable and some are not without saying which ones are which.  Truly, most people who would search for this article are looking to find out where they can sit for the bar exam if they go to such and such a school.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.14.134.164 (talk) 09:48, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
