Scholarships & Costs


 Scholarships for Incoming Law Students

We are reducing the cost of our legal education.

We know that less student loan debt means our graduates have more choices about where they practice law and whom they serve.

In order to encourage our students to provide more legal services to communities across Michigan and the nation, we are subsidizing a legal education for:

MICHIGAN RESIDENTS

and

THOSE WITH A DEMONSTRATED COMMITMENT TO:

  • Practicing law in the public sector
  • Working in Indian Country
  • Providing legal services to low-income or underserved communities in Michigan and across the nation
  • Intellectual property and legal technology
  • Inclusive leadership

We use a variety of scholarship funds to build our incoming class that is interesting, diverse, and excellent in every way.

We are looking for outstanding applicants whose interests and life experiences demonstrate LEADERSHIP, PUBLIC SERVICE, and PERSEVERANCE.
