IPSL's JD degree is a four year program.  Students must complete 864 hours of preparation and study during a period of not less
than 48 weeks, nor more than 52 consecutive weeks for 4 years. 
We designed our program to place a greater emphasis on the skills needed to successfully pass both the California First Year
Law Student's Examination (Baby Bar) and the California Bar Examination.  
Our courses challenge students to think critically, to apply the law to facts, and to clearly communicate - all crucial skills for
anyone with a legal education.

IPSL was established for the purpose of meeting the educational needs of working adults who could not attend traditional
educational institutions due to remoteness of location, economic obstacles, family commitments and other hardships. 
IPSL recognized that personal obligations and lack of accessibility created an obstacle that prevented degree-seeking adults
from realizing their dreams.  IPSL responded to this need by providing access to a high quality education through distance and
online learning programs.  IPSL is dedicated to providing a rich and dynamic educational experience to those who choose the
freedom and flexibility of distance learning to satisfy their educational and professional goals.  IPSL's high quality, very affordable
online programs are offered over the internet through a course management system and technology platform featuring online
Audio/Video Lectures and a Virtual Classroom to provide dynamic collaboration and communication between students and faculty
members.

In addition to online Audio/Video lectures at IPSL, students will receive personalized attention from a dedicated team of academic
professionals and faculty members who will help students as they progress through their course work.  Our faculty members are
always available for students to ask questions and come in for personal tutoring.  Moreover, students may contact their professors
whenever they have questions relating to the courses, materials, or their homework.  Our faculty members encourage active
student participation and interaction.  With personalized one-on-one mentoring and guidance, our faculty members understand
individual's learning style and needs.

IPSL was formed to offer a unique distance-learning educational program in law at a reasonable cost.  The cost of attending
traditional law schools today averages more than $35,000 per year.

programs with you in mind.  A degree at IPSL costs less than 25% of what you would expect to pay for regular law school.
