COMMUNITY COLLEGE PATHWAY TO

LAW SCHOOL INITIATIVE (CCPLS)

The Community College Pathway to Law School (CCPLS) Initiative

is the first and only of its kind to provide a clear pathway

from community college to law school.

The CCPLS Initiative is the product of the visionary leadership of the California State Bar’s Council on Access and
Fairness (COAF). As a participating institution in the initiative, Solano Community College (SCC) has developed special
partnerships with six top rated undergraduate and law school programs: UC Davis, UC Irvine, USF, Santa Clara
University, Loyola Marymount and USC. Students taking part in the CCPLS program and successfully completing the
initiative will be eligible to take advantage of these partnerships towards the goal of achieving a legal education.

Students apply to participate in the program. Upon admittance to the program participating students will be identified
as “CCPLS / COAF Scholars” and must complete a seven (7) course core sequence and participate in activities
sponsored by the CCPLS Initiative.

The curriculum and law related events build necessary skills to increase competitiveness at the next level of academia.

Upon successful completion of the undergraduate program CCPLS / COAF scholars will be eligible for admission to one
of the law school programs partnering with the initiative.

Pathway to Law School Initiative,
