Key Takeaways — Minnesota Merger Record
- Mitchell Hamline is the current school formed by the 2015 combination of William Mitchell and Hamline.

Identity and Status — Minnesota Merger Record
William Mitchell is a predecessor identity, not a separately admitting current school. The canonical page should preserve both predecessor histories while using Mitchell Hamline's current disclosures for admissions, costs, scholarships, and outcomes.
History — Minnesota Merger Record
William Mitchell and Hamline each had separate legal-education histories. Their December 2015 combination created Mitchell Hamline School of Law, which the 2025 Standard 509 report lists as Council-approved since 2015.[1]

Applications, offers, acceptance, first-year enrollment, LSAT, and GPA values are taken from Mitchell Hamline's 2025 Standard 509 report. William Mitchell and Hamline predecessor admissions data remain historical and separate.
Tuition, Fees, and Scholarships — Minnesota Merger Record
For the 2025–2026 academic year, the report separately lists full-time and part-time tuition and reports $16,848 in estimated off-campus living expenses. The grants table contains counts that exceed the stated student total in some columns; the draft does not convert that source anomaly into a percentage claim.[3]
Full-time and part-time tuition are different, and estimated living expense is reported separately. Scholarship evaluation should use the student's actual schedule and resolve the source-table count anomaly before publishing a grant-recipient share.
Employment Outcomes — Minnesota Merger Record
Use current Mitchell Hamline employment and bar reports. William Mitchell or Hamline predecessor results may appear only in a clearly dated history section and should never be substituted for current outcomes.
Current analysis must use a Mitchell Hamline graduating-class disclosure. William Mitchell or Hamline outcomes can appear only as dated predecessor history, not as evidence of current placement.
Bar Passage — Minnesota Merger Record
The bar report must identify Mitchell Hamline's applicable cohort and distinguish first-time from ultimate outcomes. Pre-combination results cannot be blended into the successor's rate.
Academics and Programs — Minnesota Merger Record
The current school serves full-time and part-time students. Program format, on-campus requirements, sequencing, and time-to-degree should be checked against Mitchell Hamline's catalog for the applicant's intended schedule.
Student Experience and Location — Minnesota Merger Record
The institution is based in St. Paul. Housing, travel, and schedule analysis should reflect the student's actual format, especially when a part-time pathway changes time on campus.
Comparison and Decision Guidance — Minnesota Merger Record
Compare Mitchell Hamline on program pace, total semesters, full-time or part-time tuition, written aid terms, and current outcomes. William Mitchell is a predecessor search term, not a separate current offer.
TLS Assessment — Minnesota Merger Record
The format decision drives both time and cost. Applicants should model the full path to graduation under the intended schedule and verify how scholarships interact with that pace.
Minnesota Merger Record Release and Enrollment Checks — Minnesota Merger Record
- Compare full-time and part-time structures, pacing, and total program cost.
- Verify the scholarship amount against the current billing pattern and renewal terms.
- Use current Mitchell Hamline outcomes rather than predecessor figures.
- Treat William Mitchell as a search alias and history term only.
Frequently Asked Questions — Minnesota Merger Record
Does William Mitchell still admit a separate class?
No. William Mitchell is a predecessor of Mitchell Hamline.
Why are full-time and part-time costs shown separately?
The 2025–2026 academic-year disclosure publishes different tuition figures, and the correct comparison depends on the student's schedule.
Why is no grant-recipient percentage stated?
The source table's counts are internally inconsistent; a percentage would imply precision the report does not support without review.
Methodology and Sources — Minnesota Merger Record
The official combination notice and ABA archive establish the successor identity. Current figures come from the 2025 Standard 509 report, with the grants-table anomaly preserved as a human-review blocker.
