I know you can get a certificate but I want to end my bachelors? Not sure where to start. ok so far fantastic suggestions. I live in NYC. Maybe there is a school specifically for that.

Regarding being a Paralegal: Employers (usually law firms) in the field of Law today want employees with Bachelors degrees from traditional colleges/universities.
