Law
 


A student interested in pursuing a career in law can obtain an Associate of Arts degree in Political Science by taking the prescribed course work at Abraham Baldwin College. Most students take four years (2 years at Abraham Baldwin and 2 years at a senior institution) to complete their programs and usually graduate with the Bachelor of Arts degree before being accepted into law school. A student with an exceptionally good academic record may be accepted into law school after only 3 years of college work. Other programs of study which can serve as appropriate pre-law curricula include such fields as history, English, and business administration.
