The Department of Earth Sciences is pleased to announce that our BA Earth Science and BA Geology majors are now part of Kent State's 3+3 Law School Program. 

This program allows BA Earth Science and BA Geology majors to complete many of their university requirements and all of the ESCI courses in three years. In year three, take the LSAT and apply to one of the partner law schools. If admitted to one of the law schools, in year four students proceed to do their first-year law school courses. When those courses are successfully completed, they are counted as completing their bachelor's degree at Kent State. Graduates then complete their last two years of law school to get their law degree. This allows students to get both degrees within six years, saving both time and money.

We currently have 3+3 programs with the University of Akron School of Law, Case Western Reserve School of Law, Cleveland State School of Law, and the University of Dayton School of Law.

To view the requirements for the program, download the Degree Pathways roadmap for the law school you are interested in using one of the links below. The process for getting into the program with the law school of your choice is on page 3 of that school's GPS Degree Pathways roadmap document.
