American College of History & Legal Studies
The American College of History & Legal Studies (ACHLS) was a completion college in Salem, New Hampshire, United States, which operated from 2010 to 2015.[1] The school was billed as a "fast track to law school," offering a "3+3" program to combine a B.A. with a J.D.[2] After finishing their junior year at ACHLS, students would begin their first year at the Massachusetts School of Law in Andover.[3]
ACHLS was originally proposed by the founders of the Massachusetts School of Law, which markets itself as an alternative Juris Doctorate program based on lower tuition and emphasis on practical skills. The program received state accreditation by a unanimous vote of the New Hampshire Senate.[4] Although the program closed after graduating only three small classes, the school's alumni included at least one elected official.[5]
