To become a lawyer you must have a minimum of a bachelors degree.
However, you can get a bachelors and become a paralegal for a few years. Or you can get an associates in paralegal studies, then get a bachelors and go to law school if you like. |

If you meet the requirements for admission. These would usually be having a 4 year degree and passing the admissions test. |

To attend any accredited law school you must have an undergraduate degree (at least a bachelor's) |

most law schools require applicants to have a Bachelor's degree in something.
that may not be required to become a paralegal in your state. |

You have to have your bachelors before going to law school. Some law schools only accept students with certain undergrad majors so you would have to look at the admission requirements of the law schools in your area. If you get your bachelors in paralegal studies and the law school of your choice accepts any undergrad major, then yes you can go to law school. |

you don't need to be a paralegal to go to law school. just need a bachelor's degree to gain acceptance. many attorneys don't. i wish they had so they could understand how certain things REALLY work. |
