School of Canon Law

• Degree Programs
• Canon Law and Law (J.C.L./J.D.)

Licentiate in Canon Law and Doctor of Law (J.C.L./J.D.)

Program requirements, proposed schedule.

The faculties of the Columbus School of Law and the School of Canon Law have agreed to establish a dual degree program for students seeking both the Licentiate in Canon Law (JCL) and the Doctor of Law (JD) degrees. Students successfully completing the program will receive two separate degrees, rather than a single joint degree, and the degrees need not be awarded simultaneously. This differs from a traditional joint-degree program, where the degree will not issue until the requirements of both schools have been met.  The following provisions represent the understanding of the two faculties concerning the dual degree program:

Admission Requirements

Admission is conditioned on the independent acceptance by the Columbus School of Law and the School of Canon Law although both Schools will take into consideration previous acceptance by the other School. The Law School requires applicants to have received a baccalaureate degree from an accredited College or University and to have demonstrated satisfactory performance on the Law School Admissions Test (LSAT). Students seeking admission to the JCL program must have a masters degree in theology or its equivalent and have demonstrated satisfactory performance on the Graduate Record Examination (GRE).  A student simultaneously accepted in both schools will have admission in one of the schools deferred pending successful completion of the first year in the other school. Students may also apply for admission to the dual degree program during their first year of studies in either the Law School or the School of Canon Law.

To be eligible for the J.D. degree a student must earn at least 84 semester hours of credit. Students in the Law School are required to take the entire first year curriculum (29 semester hours).

After the first years’ course work has been completed in both schools, the number of courses/credits to be taken from the Law School in any particular semester may be adjusted from the proposed schedule to fit a student’s needs or interests.

There is no standard pre-law curriculum; law schools do not establish preferences for specific undergraduate majors. Rather, they are looking for individuals with solid and broad academic backgrounds. Emphasis is on your performance in your chosen field of study. Course work that suggests sensitivity to the foundational issues and traditions of Western civilization is valued. Therefore, as a "pre-law" student, choose a major in which you have a strong interest and, at the same time, which will provide a broad educational foundation.

Excellence in the legal profession requires several important skills: abilities to read critically, to express one's ideas effectively in both oral and written forms, to analyze clearly, and to form logical conclusions. It is prudent to include within your curriculum courses that will aid you in developing these vital skills.

Relevant courses include, in particular: English composition, literature, and rhetoric; mathematics; and philosophy, especially logic. Broad exposure to the humanities develops a flexible mind, while mathematics and science courses provide experience in organizing data and applying general rules. Psychology and sociology courses are also appropriate for obtaining a better understanding of individual and group behavior. You may also choose courses in areas directly related to law, such as politics, economics, and business. CUA offers three tracks that may be of special interest for students interested in applying to law school. There is a Pre-Law Program in Philosophy . The Department of Politics also offers a Pre-Law Track within the Major as well as a Minor a Minor in Politics Pre-Law .

In addition, some courses may be helpful for the Law School Admission Test (LSAT) or the law school curriculum, while others relate to the work of most attorneys. In the first category, argumentative writing or constitutional law would be helpful. The second category includes courses in accounting, business, and public speaking.
