I graduated with a prelaw degree from Pensacola Christian College. Then it was time to go to law school. With an UNACCREDITED undergrad degree, that ended up being a problem.

Law schools are divided into four "tiers." The first tier is the best, and the fourth tier is the worst. Obviously, I started applying at first tier schools. No luck. I finally went to a third tier school.

In the legal profession, it is vital to go to the best school possible. Although I graduated with a 3.68 from PCC, I was unable to get into the grad school of my choice.

So, did it affect my career? Absolutely. I should never have gone to PCC.

Yes, there are students who have gotten into good law schools. Many of these students, however, had to attend another school before they eventually got into law school.

And for those who say "Regent University" accepts PCC undegrad degrees, keep in mind that Regent is FOURTH TIER. According to US News and World Report, Regent ranks in the bottom quarter of all law schools everywhere.

Beware!
