An agreement between:
The University of Minnesota Law School, University of St. Thomas School of Law, and Mitchell Hamline have developed a consortium arrangement whereby students may register for a defined set of courses at one of the other law schools without having to make specific arrangements as a visiting student. To qualify as a consortium course, the course cannot be offered at the home school during the fall or spring semester.
Registration Procedure
You may express your preference to register for a consortium course by completing an Add/Drop form. Your name will be placed on a waiting list for the consortium course(s). We will notify you by phone or E-mail if there is space for you in the consortium course(s). Your name will remain on the waiting list until you are registered for the course or you ask us to remove your name.
Rules
- You may not earn more than six consortium course credits during your law school career.
- You must be in good standing to participate.
- You pay tuition according to Mitchell Hamline’s fee schedule.

- If you have an exam conflict, you must reschedule the Mitchell Hamline exam.
- If you are unable to take a consortium course exam due to an emergency, you must reschedule with the visiting school.
- The visiting school will submit grades to Mitchell Hamline. The grades will appear on your Mitchell Hamline transcript, but they will not be calculated into your grade point average.
