William Mitchell College of Law: the applicant's brief

6 findings
  1. The short answer

    William Mitchell College of Law was a law school in Saint Paul, Minnesota, and it later merged with Hamline University School of Law to form Mitchell Hamline School of Law. It suits applicants who want to understand the predecessor institution’s place in that merger rather than apply to a standalone school.

  2. What you can study

    The listed study options span 20 programmes across Bachelor’s Degree, Master’s Degree, and Professional levels. Example programmes include Bachelor of Architecture, Bachelor of Arts in International Studies, Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, Bachelor of Business Administration, Bachelor of Communication and Information Studies, Bachelor of Fine Arts in Interior Design, Bachelor of Fine Arts in Visual Communication, Bachelor of Science in Biology, Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, and Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering. Because the institution merged into Mitchell Hamline School of Law, confirm the current programme catalogue and whether any of these awards are still offered under the same name.

  3. Getting in

    For an international applicant, the key step is to check the current admissions page for Mitchell Hamline School of Law, since William Mitchell College of Law no longer operates as a separate institution. Verify the application route, entry requirements, document list, deadlines, and any programme-specific conditions on the official website, and confirm how prior study at this institution is treated after the merger.

  4. What it costs

    The university does not publish a fee for international students; confirm the current rate with its admissions office. Costs will also depend on living expenses in Saint Paul and on the specific programme, so check tuition, required fees, and estimated local expenses before applying.

  5. Coming from abroad

    No language of instruction is stated. Before applying from abroad, confirm the current teaching language, visa documents, transcript requirements, proof of qualifications, and whether your chosen programme is open to international students at the merged institution.

  6. How it compares

    Among 2,515 universities in the United States, this institution stands out less as a current standalone option and more as a predecessor to Mitchell Hamline School of Law. That makes it useful for applicants comparing school histories or tracking where its programmes and records moved after the merger, but the live application choice should be checked against the successor school.
