I believe that is a requirement for your application to be considered. If you don't have one, sorry Sad

Thought so. I dropped out my Jr. year, and REALLY don't want to go back at this point. But I am VERY interested in Law School.

I agree with Ashley: I'm pretty sure you need that degree to gain entrance. But at least you wouldn't have a the whole 4 years to go through if you dropped out originally in your junior year.

Yup, you definitely need a bachelor's degree to apply to any ABA-accredited school. There might be some non-accrediteds and online schools that don't absolutely require it, but I wouldn't really recommend you apply or attend any of those.
