Is it possible to obtain a joint law degree in Nursing by attending two schools at the same time?

Postby eorl » Sun May 01, 2011 4:58 am

Because I have my associates in General Studies I have a 4 year plan at 12 credit hours per semester to get my bachelors of Nursing. However my end goal is to become a medical malpractice attorney. I've seen joint Nursing/Law degree programs in the country and the benefit of doing this is that the required credit hours are much less than obtaining both degrees separately. however there is not one in my area.


Would it be possible/practical to take online law classes to graduate with a law degree at the same time as my Nursing degree in 4 years?

Does anyone know if any online programs that offer this?


As I am in the ROTC program most of my summers will be consumed my military training.

I live in Utah and plan on attending Westminster college

No you have to complete you bachelors degree to proceed further to law degree. Until you have completed you bachelor's degree you can't proceed to any degree in law.

You can't get into law school until you have obtained a 4 year bachelors degree.

So, in order to get into law school, you would first need to complete your Bachelors of Nursing, Then you could apply to get into a 3 year law school.
