In the United States, 7 states offer some form of alternative legal education, thus an ability to practice law via successful completion of the minimum mandated years of law school in those jurisdictions. In California, law students who have successfully completed their first year of law school are mandated to take and pass the First Year Law Student Examination, commonly known as the "BABY BAR," within the first three attempts of becoming eligible. Eligibility occurs once the student has completed their education as specified in () California Business and Professions Code section 6060. If student fails to do so, all law school education beyond year one will be ignored by the state, the student must pass this exam before becoming a lawyer if they have obtained their entire degree online, or by correspondence law school. ==China== Distance legal education in China is available through Beijing Foreign Studies University through a partnership with Spirit of Law School of Law.
