<p>I am in the same boat as yourself… I just graduated from a 4-year University but I cannot find work in the field I majored in (political science) and law school is not an option for me (loans/low gpa) I was also accepted into UCLA extension paralegal program but it is 5k and doesnt offer much financial aid… do you know other school in CA that have this program for a reasonable amount? thanks!</p>
<p>Other than LA City College (mentioned in the “Ask the Dean” reply)? </p>
