Paralegal Studies

The Paralegal Studies program at Sanford-Brown College-Fenton (SBC) is designed to provide students with an understanding of legal principles and skills necessary to perform substantive paralegal work that requires knowledge of the concepts, principles and procedures common to the practice of law. The core curriculum is structured to include General Education, Professional Studies and Core Requirements. The comprehensive coursework is grouped around knowledge and skills required for paralegal studies; however, courses are not necessarily offered in the sequences in which they appear in the catalog. Also, students will typically be taught by more than one instructor during their program of study at SBC. Upon successful completion of the program, students can receive an Associate of Applied Science Degree to help prepare them for entry-level employment in the paralegal career field.

Sanford-Brown College-Fenton is institutionally accredited (accredited in total) by the Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools (ACICS), a national accrediting agency recognized by the United States Department of Education (DOE) and the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA). This indicates that SBC substantially meets or exceeds the stated criteria of education quality established by ACICS, and approved by the DOE and CHEA. This recognition of institutional accreditation by ACICS entitles SBC to offer Title IV Financial Assistance to students who qualify. Accreditation is a voluntary process which may be undertaken by schools to demonstrate compliance with specific standards designed to indicate a level of education quality.
