Concordia University School of Law's inaugural graduating class will be eligible to sit for the July bar examination in Idaho after all.

The American Bar Association's Council of the Section of Legal Education and Admissions to the Bar voted over the weekend to provisionally accredit the Boise law school—clearing the way for its 11 expected graduates to take the exam. Graduates of schools not accredited by the ABA are ineligible to take the test.

Whether Concordia's first graduates could take the exam has loomed since August, when the ABA delayed granting provisional accreditation pending a fact-finder visit.
