<p>Hi everyone I'm from Sweden and I'm wondering if its possible
or do you have to undergraduate somewhere else first ??</p>
<p>Anyone ?? No ?</p>
<p>You MUST have an undergrad degree before you are admitted to Harvard law.</p>
<p>That under grad degree can be from Harvard or another accredited school.</p>
<p>I know but my question was can you undergraduate ON Harvard ?</p>
<p>Harvard Law School does not accept undergraduate students or award undergraduate degrees. Harvard College (the undergraduate school) does not have a law department, or permit students to concentrate in law. While a few colleges do offer degrees in something like “legal studies” (which are mainly for people who want to be paralegals or police officers), in the U.S. training as a lawyer is something that happens only after a student has obtained at least a bachelor’s degree in something else. Not just at Harvard; everywhere.</p>
<p>That said, Harvard Law School professors often teach a course in the college, and there may be a few individual courses at the law school that undergraduates may take. I didn’t go to Harvard College or Harvard Law School, but I went to pretty close equivalents. In college, I took a political science class, an economics class, and a history class that were taught for undergraduates by law school professors, and in law school I had one class where the professor allowed 5-6 undergraduates to take the class, and another class that was team-taught by a law professor and a psychology professor for law students, psychology graduate students, and some advanced undergraduates…</p>
<p>JHS thank you so much (: one more question how many of the ivy league schools can you undergraduate on ??
I’m thankful if you can answer that one too :D</p>
<p>All eight of the “Ivy League” universities have undergraduate colleges. (The Ivy League is the name of their sports league for competition by sports teams from their undergraduate divisions. “Ivy League” doesn’t actually mean anything other than that specific sports league. There are a number of universities of equivalent quality and prestige that are members of other sports leagues, and thus are not in the Ivy League, including Stanford, MIT, Duke, the University of Chicago, the University of California, the University of Michigan . . . .)</p>
<p>Only five of the eight Ivy League universities have law schools: Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Penn, Cornell. Princeton, Brown, and Dartmouth do not.</p>
<p>Most American universities offer undergraduate degrees. Just a handful don’t. The ones that come to mind are the University of California - San Francisco and Rockefeller University. Any other American university you have heard of almost certainly has an undergraduate division. </p>
<p>Thank you so much !!</p>
<p>To avoid confusion, you cannot study law as an undergraduate in the United States at all. JHS is talking about non-vocational undergraduate degrees at Ivy League universities. </p>
