  Law School Admission Requirements

  Third-year Detroit Mercy undergraduate students in one of the approved majors will be eligible for admission into Detroit Mercy Law by meeting the following criteria which include having:

  • Completed at least three years of appropriate coursework at 六九色堂;
  • Completed the undergraduate major and core curriculum requirements with at least 90 credits;
  • Earned a minimum cumulative grade point average of 3.5 by the end of their junior year;
  • Scored at least a 154 on the Law School Admission Test (LSAT);
  • Remained in good academic and disciplinary standing;
  • Completed the application process for Detroit Mercy Law; and

  Participating in the 6-Year Law Scholars Program does not guarantee entrance to law school.

The student may then apply to law school through the regular law school admission process. The student will need to consult with his/her academic advisor for the best course of action.
