Center for Advanced Legal Studies is a private and independent college that has specialized in paralegal studies since 1987. All tuition received is dedicated to our paralegal programs and not used to support other fields of study. Because of this, we are able to provide some of the most specialized and dedicated paralegal training available.

Tuition for all programs is $350.00 per semester hour.
