MLEAP big flyer.jpg

The University of Minnesota Law School is pleased to announce an exciting opportunity, the Minnesota Law Early Admissions Program (MLEAP). This program is for current undergraduate students at any of the five University of Minnesota campuses (Crookston, Duluth, Morris, Rochester, and Twin Cities) who are in good academic standing and are interested in pursuing a legal education at the University of Minnesota Law School beginning in the fall immediately following their undergraduate graduation.

The purpose of MLEAP is to provide current University of Minnesota an opportunity to apply to the Law School without the LSAT. Students considering MLEAP should have researched law programs and determined that the University of Minnesota Law School is the best choice for their legal education. This binding decision program requires that, if admitted, students withdraw from other law schools and not initiate any new law school admissions applications.

To learn more, stop by and talk with Dan Cheng, Assistant Director of Admissions at the Law School, on April 17 in MLK! You can also visit this website for more information on MLEAP.
