“After years of dissatisfaction and little job security, I turned to [Tulane SoPA] to attain a certificate in Paralegal Studies. I received a BA in Paralegal Studies in 2015 and leveraged my BA to enroll in law school. In 2018, I graduated from law school, passed the bar, and am now an assistant district attorney. Oh, and I was 61 when I was sworn in. It is never too late.”
