Seton Hall Law offers four online law programs designed specifically for professionals who work in highly regulated fields. The programs are delivered 100% online and can be completed in 24 weeks. Each program is divided into three eight-week segments.
The online format offers flexibility for individuals who have commitments that make it difficult for them to attend classes on campus. The online graduate certificate courses are taught by the same instructors who teach at the Seton Hall Law campus.
Interested students may enroll in individual courses to obtain CLE or CEU credit; however, a graduate certificate will not be awarded until three courses have been completed. Three courses in one area satisfy the graduate certificate requirement.
Credits from the Online Graduate Certificate Program are transferable to the Master of Legal Studies Degree.
