Quality, Christian legal education delivered through an online platform
Foundation of Truth
All laws are based upon policies, and policies, in turn, are based upon a perspective of truth. Oak Brook College of Law (OBCL) teaches the philosophy of government and law articulated by our Founders in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, based upon the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God and certain self-evident truths.
Streamlined Education and Professional Development
OBCL employs an online model for education. This model allows students to tailor their education within a structured framework to meet their learning style. The flexible study schedule also provides the student the opportunity to seek internships in a legal field of interest; further enhancing the educational experience.
Supportive Community
OBCL graduate, Mark, said it well “. . . (OBCL) is a place where you are surrounded by peers who will be your friends for the rest of your life and by professors who will help not only with the academic subjects, but be mentors as you enter your professional career…”
