Curriculum Guides
Curriculum Guides are suggested courses of study which may include more or less
than the RSCC degree requirements. They are not intended to represent requirements
for any particular college or university. Students should consult articulation agreements,

Pre-Law Degree: Associate of Science
This curriculum guide is designed exclusively for students who plan to transfer to
Middle Tennessee State University. If you plan to attend another university, please
contact an advisor to plan a course of study.
This course of study is designed for students who plan to complete a bachelor’s degree
in Pre-Law and who also intend to apply for admission to law school. Law school
admission requirements vary from institution to institution; however, all law schools
require applicants to have earned either a B.S. or B.A. degree. All law school applicants
must also take the LSAT (Law School Admission Test). Students should consult with
their advisor, as well as with the college or university they plan to attend in completing
their bachelor’s degree.
