I've decided that I would like to become a paralegal.?

Can anyone suggest some accredited online schools that I can apply to?
Additional Details
My sister got her B.S Certificate through the University of Maryland online so I know it is possible. She also had no problem finding a job after she finished her classes so I also know that is possible. I was trying to avoid University of Maryland because they are pretty expensive. I was just wondering if there are other online colleges out there that offer the same as Maryland without all the expense.

There are no ABA-approved online paralegal schools. There are some schools that offer a few online classes, but you still have to go to the campus for the rest of the classes. The ABA will not approve online programs. The reason is that this is not the proper way to study this field. I am in an approved program now, and there is lots of research and field work involved. If you choose an online school, you will have a very hard time finding a job, if you even can find one. The other issue is that firms will not hire without experience, usually 2 years, no matter where you go to school. So, going to an online school is even worse, because you don't even have any kind of hands-on training.
Here is a source for approved schools:

Ummm....I did not say it was impossible. The bottom line is that an unapproved school is NOT nearly as good as an approved one. There are NO approved online schools for paralegal studies and approved is NOT the same as accredited. The firms where the paralegals in my class work will not hire paras without experience. |
