The University’s first-time pass rate exceeded the first-time pass rates of three California ABA accredited law schools and equaled or exceeded the first-time pass rates of 12 of the 19 law schools accredited by the California Committee of Bar Examiners.
David L. Boyd, president of the University, praised the efforts of the graduates, “Anyone who can complete four years of independent law study deserves a great deal of admiration. While we’re proud of the school’s success rate on this and past examinations, much of the credit should go to the graduates. Our faculty can provide the map for success but it’s the student who must devote the time to study.”
Individuals passing the General Bar Examination and the Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination and who have received positive moral character determinations may either take the Attorney’s Oath individually or have participated in admissions ceremonies that were held throughout the state during June.
