Themis Resources at Mitchell Hamline
Mitchell Hamline has partnered with Themis to offer our students resources to help them with their law school classes, the Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination (MPRE), and the bar exam. The cost for these Themis resources is billed as part of the Integrated Bar Readiness Fee for a total of six semesters.
The Integrated Bar Readiness Program Fee pays for providing students with a wealth of tools, resources, and services to learn the skills and substance we teach as part of the J.D. program.

Each question is accompanied by an innovative, content-rich rationale, paired with images, charts, hyperlinks, and/or definitions.
