I was enrolled at NWCU SOL in March 2022, and had to withdraw in August of 2022 because of personal reasons. I recently applied and was accepted to re enroll in the program. It's a solid program, and I learned a great deal in just 5 months. However, I am concerned about the fact that it is only a CA Bar accredited program. Let's say I get the JD but can not pass the bar. Is my degree useless? I already have a Masters of Jurisprudence from an ABA accredited program and it was not worth the 30K+ in tuition. The program at NWCU SOL is very affordable, but I still don't want to risk having just another degree.
I have another option, and it's an LLB from the University of London Worldwide. This is an accredited degree which may be more valuable, for perhaps teaching. I would then have an option to sit for the bar in CA with an LLM. The tuition at UOL is more affordable than NWCU SOL. If I had to do an LLM, the combined total cost would be the same had I attended NWCU SOL. The duration of study is about the same, 4 years with the LLM.
So I am looking for some guidance. My end goal is to be a licensed attorney, with fall back plan to teach in the legal field. Do I go for the LLB/LLM, or do I go or the JD at NWCU SOL.
Thank you for any feedback
