Vermont Law School Launches Reduced-Residency JD Program

Vermont Law School will offer a new Reduced-Residency Juris Doctor program this fall semester, which allows students to earn up to 15 credits online. So reports Bloomberg BNA.

Students need 87 credits to graduate from Vermont Law School. Students will spend 18-months taking classes at the South Royalton, Vermont campus. After that, they can earn the rest of their credits online and through an extensive in-practice externship. Students will take five or six online courses; most required, with one being an elective.

The program will offer more flexibility for students to work or save money by living at home, and it follows the American Bar Association’s choice to include online learning in its accreditation standards.
