3 + 3 to a Law Degree
This program allows ANTH majors on the BA track to complete many of their university requirements and all of their ANTH courses in three years. In year four, they go on to their first year of law school, and if completed successfully, those credits are used to complete the bachelor’s degree at Kent State. Graduates then go on to their last two years of law school to get their Juris Doctorate. This allows students to get both degrees within six years, saving both time and money.
Pairing anthropology with a law degree is a powerful combination. Anthropology provides a wide lens of what it means to be human, preparing students to thrive in an increasingly multidisciplinary and multicultural world. A number of our graduates have gone on to earn law degrees and the 3+3 program will allow students to do that more quickly.
We currently have 3+3 programs with Cleveland State University School of Law, University of Akron School of Law, and Case Western Reserve School of Law.
