A bachelor's degree in Law at this level is an undergraduate route for students starting legal study or building a foundation for later professional training. It suits applicants who want a first degree rather than a diploma or master's degree.

The universities in this group are all marked public. Several options are in major urban settings, including Seattle and Chicago-area institutions, while others are in smaller places such as Mississippi Valley and Bemidji. Fee information is published for some universities and missing for others, so compare the stated tuition carefully and confirm any missing cost details with the university.

Before applying, verify the tuition fee, any entry requirements, the campus location, and the exact Law programme title. You should also confirm whether the degree leads to the outcome you want, since that depends on the specific university and programme structure.
