The Council of the Section of Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar of the American Bar Association (the “Council”) does not accredit or approve non-J.D. degrees or certificates. In its review of non-J.D. degree program applications, the Council determines whether the proposed degree program will interfere with the ability of the law school to operate in compliance with the Standards and to carry out its program of legal education. Acquiescence in a degree other than the J.D. degree is not an approval of the degree itself and, therefore, the law school may not announce that the degree is approved by the Council. The accreditation of non-J.D. degree programs is subject to the oversight of the law school’s or its university’s national accreditor.
