You can however once licensed in California get admitted to practice in most ALL Federal Courts, as well as before the Social Security Administration and US Patent and Trademark Office if you pass their Patent Examiners test.  There are other Federal Agencies you can practice before, and you can appear pro hac vice - meaning with the permission of the local State or other Court - on certain specialty cases you might intend to remove to Federal Court et cetera.

Once licensed you can usually practice pro hac vice in any Federal Court in America, and some state will allow you to also on a case by case basis.

HOWEVER, for Regular Students: In accordance with the Rule VII, Section 81 of the Rules Regulating Admission to Practice Law in California, many Schools of Law require that applicants for admission as regular students have only completed at least 60 semester units or 90 quarter units of studies constituting not less than one-half of the total acceptable for a bachelor's degree at a qualified institution. At least 90 percent of the total credits earned must be in courses with substantive content or training. In addition, the applicant's grade point average for all courses with substantive content must be at least equal to the average required for graduating from the institutions attended, which is ordinarily 2.0 or better on the 4.0 grading system. However, all students are encouraged to complete their bachelor's degree studies before applying.

BUT . . .  many California Law Schools have provisions for Special Students: A student who has a strong desire to become a lawyer, but who cannot qualify for admission as a "regular" student, may apply for admission as a "special" student. In all cases the applicant for admission as a special student must submit the same information required of regular students. Since the Law School Admissions Test (LSAT) score Click Here! is important to the special student, persons seeking admission as special students are advised to complete the LSAT early in the processing year, but in no event later than June of the year in which admission is sought. Applicants who do not have the required 60 semester units must also take the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) test prior to admission to law school. To meet the Committee of Bar Examiners' requirements for entrance to law school, an applicant must attain passing scores on the following general examinations administered by CLEP: (1) Under Composition and Literature category, College Composition, AND (2) Two other examinations, each designed to correspond to full-year courses (6 semester hours each*) or four other examinations, each designed to correspond to semester courses (3 semester hours each*) that can be selected from any of the following subjects: Composition and Literature (Humanities examination only); Foreign Languages; History and Social Sciences; Science and Mathematics; Business.  If you want to get into college - or into college early a high SAT score will help and here's how to get that => Click Here!

What does this mean?   It means in theory you could go STRAIGHT to Law School and become licensed to practice law - a.k.a be a REAL Lawyer - without even obtaining a BS.  THEN - the smart person later goes ON to get a Masters in Law (an LL.M)  from an ABA accredited school later - maybe after a few years of practice - or not.  As the saying goes - you are a good as the last thing you did.  It is the license to practice law that matters - not the degree.

Let's break this on down. Tuition is about $7,500 each year for many of the on-line California law schools - and you can take the classes anywhere you have your computer.  Sure you will need to travel to California after the First year to take the "Baby Bar", and then at the end of the  four years to take the actual Bar exam and hopefully pass to become licensed to practice,  but for about twenty dollars a day for four years - you can become a Lawyer.  Some people pay that much for auto insurance.

So, you can go deep in debt to get a Law Degree, and become a Lawyer; or you can take a shortcut to a license to practice law,  pay tuition monthly of less than $300, study in your pajamas or underwear, and then go back and legitmize yourself  after your pass the Bar, all you want with an LLM later.  Which way is wiser?
