Our students don’t
follow a set path.
They forge new ones.
Transform your life—and your community—with a Mitchell Hamline law degree. Gain the experience, knowledge, and skills you need to create a new future.
Your Path. Your Experience. Your Law School.
Build your skills and gain legal knowledge through practice-based curriculum. Engage with dedicated faculty and gain experience with clinics. Take advantage of our strong pipeline to clerkships, externships, firms, public service, and more through any of our enrollment options.
You take daytime courses each semester of your first year in the traditional full-time enrollment option and have the flexibility to take evening, online, and blended courses later, allowing you to complete your J.D. in three years.
You can choose to attend during the day or evening and have the flexibility to take online and blended courses later. Students in the part-time program typically take one less class than full-time students and graduate in four years.
Blended learning provides you more flexibility while learning from the same full-time professors as the on-campus program. You have intensive periods of on-campus study and skills experiences with flexible online coursework.
Transform your future.
Mitchell Hamline students receive a transformative education and gain hands-on experience before graduating. Dedicated support along with targeted career and professional development set our students up for success. Our alumni become entrepreneurs and business professionals, attorneys in law firms large and small, and public servants on the bench or in government agencies.
