Recruiting for Success
MC Law takes a whole person approach to recruiting and admissions. Your LSAT score is definitely a criterion, but our student selection process doesn’t stop there.
MC Law is interested in students who demonstrate not only the intellect needed to succeed in law school, but the character, leadership skills, and drive required to succeed in life. MC Law
is looking for well-rounded people of promise. That attitude is reflected in the law school’s application process, which considers not only your LSAT score and your GPA, but also your life experiences and the potential you bring to the law school and the legal field.
Students accepted to MC Law will find that the whole person approach doesn’t end with the admissions process. Our professors are available to work with students one-on-one to identify individual challenges and enhance areas of strength. From opportunities to study law abroad to participating in public interest work to competing on our nationally-recognized appellate, trial, and arbitrations and dispute resolution teams, MC Law offers opportunities for each student to explore the specific areas in which he or she excels.
For most prospective students, tuition is a determining factor in choosing a law school. MC Law ranks among the most affordable private law schools in the country. The law school offers generous, merit-based scholarships that can make the dream of a first-class legal education a reality. And unlike most law schools, MC Law also offers scholarships for outstanding academic performance as an MC Law student.
From the moment you apply until the day you graduate and throughout your lifetime as an alumnus, MC Law treats you as an individual.
