About Concord Law School
Kaplan University’s Concord Law School is the nation’s premier provider of online legal education. Since opening its virtual doors in 1998, Concord has helped hundreds of graduates obtain their Juris Doctor (JD) or Executive Juris DoctorSM (EJD) degree. Concord has always been a member of the Kaplan family. The formal merger of Concord into Kaplan University in the fall of 2007 not only makes Concord the first online law school to be part of a regionally accredited institution of higher education, but it reflects the continuing maturation and progress of Concord’s programs.
