The Drexel College of Law has received provisional accreditation, an important step toward providing its first students with usable legal degrees.
With accreditation from the American Bar Association, students that graduate can now take the bar exam and practice professionally upon passing. Final accreditation will take two more years, but Drexel has received the provisional accreditation after only 18 months, the minimum time it takes to receive it.
The College of Law opened in 2006, the first new law school in the region in more than 30 years. The first class had 180 students drawn from a pool of 1,700 applicants, and it will graduate in 2009.
