Courses transfer to Mitchell Hamline in the same modality in which they were completed at your previous institution. To ensure we track them correctly, we\u2019ll need a letter from your prior school indicating the courses you took at that institution that were considered distance education. Distance education courses are defined as those in which the student and professor are not physically in the same location and instruction occurs either remotely and synchronously or asynchronously. You may also submit the letter directly to Mitchell Hamline or along with your official law school transcript through the LSAC Credential Assembly Service (CAS), in which case the letter should be sent directly from your law school to the Credential Assembly Service (see LSAC Transcript information).<\/span><\/p>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/code.jquery.com\/jquery-1.11.0.min.js\"><\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/calendar.mitchellhamline.edu\/Scripts\/core.js?v=2021.1.0\"><\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\">ActiveData.Events(\"https:\/\/calendar.mitchellhamline.edu\/handlers\/query.ashx?id=3525f9152ece4fb6b9e48d11da81194c&tenant=&site=\",function (response) {$(\"#1f4dd4d5f45917\").append(response.data);});<\/script><div class=\"panel panel-events\"><header class=\"panel-header\"><h2 class=\"panel-title\">Upcoming Events<\/h2><span><a href=\"https:\/\/calendar.mitchellhamline.edu\/\">All Events<\/a><\/span><\/header><div class=\"panel-content-wrapper\"><div id=\"1f4dd4d5f45917\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><style>.eventItem{max-height:90px;overflow: hidden;-webkit-mask-image: linear-gradient(to bottom, black 75%, transparent 100%);mask-image: linear-gradient(to bottom, black 75%, transparent 100%);}<\/style>\n<div class=\"panel panel-images\">\r\n        <style>\r\n            @media (min-width:600px) {\r\n                .panel-images .panel-inside .panel-image {\r\n                    background-image: url(\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/campus-flowers-jpg.webp\");\r\n                }\r\n                            .panel-images .panel-inside .panel-image.tc {\r\n                    background-image: url(\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/saint-paul-jpg.webp\");\r\n                }\r\n}           .no-mediaqueries .panel-images .panel-inside .panel-image {\r\n                background-image: url(\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/campus-flowers.jpg\");\r\n            }               \r\n\r\n            .no-mediaqueries .panel-images .panel-inside .panel-imagetc {\r\n                background-image: url(\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/saint-paul.jpg\");\r\n            }               \r\n        <\/style>\r\n        <a href=\"\/life\/\" class=\"panel-inside\">\r\n        <div class=\"panel-image\">\r\n          <header class=\"panel-header\">\r\n            <h2>Life at Mitchell Hamline<\/h2>\r\n          <\/header>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n        <\/a> <a href=\"\/life\/living-in-the-twin-cities\/\" class=\"panel-inside\">\r\n        <div class=\"panel-image tc\">\r\n          <header class=\"panel-header\">\r\n            <h2>Living in the Twin Cities<\/h2>\r\n          <\/header>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n        <\/a> <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Congratulations Congratulations on your decision to pursue a legal education!
