Entry requirements

No campus visits, no career interruption and no need to put your life on hold to earn a graduate credential! This is not a law degree and it is not designed to be. Curriculum Details The Graduate Certificate in Environment and Natural Resources Law and Policy stands on its own as a valuable credential, but it also stacks directly toward the Haub School's online M.S. in Environment, Natural Resources and Society, giving students a low-risk entry point into a full graduate degree if they choose to continue. Do I need a law degree to enroll? No, a law degree is not required to enroll in the Graduate Certificate in Environment and Natural Resources Law and Policy.

Tuition is charged per credit, so the total depends on the modules you register for each year. Current fees are listed in the official fee schedule.

The application fee is $40 and non-refundable, paid when the application is submitted through the online application. ACT or SAT scores are not part of the admissions requirements.
