Monterey College of Law

It has been a difficult yet very rewarding experience to begin my legal studies at MCL. There are some minor frustrations, but they are overshadowed by the talented professors, camaraderie with my class, and the care of the administration. To illustrate, I would like to share what Lisa did for me a couple of weeks ago. I had left my thumb drive somewhere, and was worried about it. Lisa was home sick after having been at the doctors — remember, this is during the evening class. Wendy called Lisa to see if she knew where it was — lo and behold, Lisa came all the way to the school to give the drive that someone had turned in, when she was visibly ill. I don’t think that would happen elsewhere —
Thank You!

So yeah best law school experience ever
All the classes are ridiculously easy, I felt over prepared for the bar exam which I passed, easily, on my first attempt. The teachers are all in 110% all care about your success not just in their class but also the bar exam and on life after. It’s like joining a community, a brotherhood, and a family all at once.
And it’s ¹⁄₃ the price o most law schools. So a great price for a great experience.

I have received nothing but kind words and support from everyone I have encountered during my visits to Monterey College of Law.

Pros: Much more affordable than a «traditional» law school. Evening classes make it possible to hold down a job while attending. Small class sizes mean more access to individualized instruction and a closer knit «family» relationship among students, faculty & staff. All the professors are practicing attorneys or judges, which means they have actual hands-​on experience instead of pure theory.
Cons: No access to federally funded loans/​scholarships. Some professors don’t teach the materials in a «Bar prep» manner, which makes it a bit more difficult come Bar exam time.

Very Enjoyable Enlightening Educational Experience!
The educators are active lawyers and judges, from the surrounding communities. A four year night law school, Monterey College of Law offers an affordable legal education to students of all ages. This was the only law school, I attended and graduated from. Because I could not start until I was age 28, it was wonderful to have classmates around the same age or older. Thank You!
