Accreditation
Maintaining the Highest Standards in Online Legal Education
St. Francis School of Law is accredited by the Committee of Bar Examiners (CBE) of the State Bar of California. The accreditation took effect August 21, 2020. For a time, St. Francis operated its pre-existing registered law school program in concert with its new accredited J.D. program, as students completed or transferred. St. Francis no longer operates the registered unaccredited law school J.D. degree program, but some students who transferred from that program to the school’s accredited J.D. program remain enrolled. This website will, therefore, contain consumer information for both programs.

Study at, or graduation from, this law school may not qualify a student to take the bar examination or be licensed to practice law in jurisdictions other than California.
