Online Law School

Welcome to Abraham Lincoln University’s Online Law Degree Program

Established in 1996, we are one of the oldest online law schools in California and the nation. We pride ourselves on the establishment of a rigorous, quality, online law education that prepares the student for a number of careers with a law degree requirement.

Our Juris Doctor online degree program is designed to be one of the best JD programs for working professionals, providing students with the flexibility they need without sacrificing a quality education. Abraham Lincoln University’s online law degree is ideal for those who want to practice law or enter into one of the many legal fields that a Juris Doctor degree affords. Students will learn the advanced analytical skills necessary to write legal documents, conduct legal research, and evaluate legal issues. Our law school admission requirements include a bachelor’s degree and an online assessment; no LSAT is required.

Students in the JD program must register as law students with the State Bar of California within 90 days after beginning the study of law. Upon passing the First-Year Law Students’ Examination (FYLSX, also known as the “Baby Bar”), the California Bar Examination (CBX), and Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination (MPRE), as well as receiving a positive moral character determination and not being in arrears with family support obligations, our law school graduates of the Juris Doctor program are eligible to become full members of the State Bar of California and to practice in California.

ALU is registered with the Committee of Bar Examiners of the State Bar of California in the unaccredited distance learning school category. ALU School of Law is a comprehensive and completely online Juris Doctor program designed to pave the way for your unique career path and prepare you for the California First Year Law Students’ Examination (FYLSX, commonly referred to as the “Baby Bar”) and the California General Bar Examination (GBX).
