Best environment - have made incredible friends and people are so supportive of one another. The professors are absolutely incredible - I wish I could take more credits in a semester to experience more of them! Employers LOVE people who went to Michigan too so that's a huge perk

Nothing really, sometimes location can be hard to network, but at the same time you're not competing to all go to the same place so that's really nice

Can't make a bad decision to go here. Highly recommend!

Yes

My peers are really supportive; professors are generally accessible; lots of opportunities to get great skills outside of classes.

The winter can be brutal, especially if you're not used to it. Also, there is still some competition, even though it's probably the least of all top law schools.

If you want a supportive community, this is the place to be.

Yes

Down to earth classmates - Cut throat and Univ. of Michigan Law School do not go together. One of my closest friends from that time called it the Disney Land of law schools.

Helpful Alumni - I had a lot of success reaching out to various Michigan Alumni in order to ask them about their work or experience or advice. I had a lot of alumni generously make time for me to pick their brain as a 1L.

Price tag - Tuition prices are expensive at University of Michigan and for out of state students, there are essentially no opportunities to obtain residency.

Ann Arbor is certainly a small town and dominated by the University but it has a lot more to offer than pizza and beer. When it comes to food and night life, Ann Arbor certainly has way above average offerings.

Yes

People are friendly and willing to help one another. It's a good environment overall. Professors are great.

It's law school. Couple of gunners who like to compete but not too many of those. So professors are not approachable, but these are very few.

It's a great culture where people are genuine and seek to help each other. Student orgs are amazing and folks do care for one another.

Yes

Michigan is a fantastic law school with impressive faculty, awesome surroundings and a valuable degree in recruiting.

Tuition is far too expensive, as with all other elite law schools. I paid back pretty significant student loans for several years.

Which law school (if any) you should attend depends a lot on what type of career you think you want. If you hope to work in BigLaw, you should go to the highest ranked law school that accepts you.

Yes

Michigan has great professors, a collegial atmosphere, and a beautiful campus. Job prospects are strong - the Michigan brand carriers throughout the country.

Tuition is expensive, and it continues to rise. Not a fan of the underground, green carpeted library.

If you are considering public interest, Michigan has an outstanding loan repayment assistance program.

Yes

The students professors are excellent. Great clinical opportunities for students who want a more hands-on education. Challenging, yet rewarding experience.

The winters are known to be cold, if this school was in California it would probably rank in the top 5 law schools in the country.

The alumni connections, academic rigor, and prestigious reputation remain the biggest advantages for attending Michigan Law.

Yes

The quality of professors is amazing. They're also very approachable. The new law school building means that there's a lot of space, and everything looks very new. Football!

The winters are very cold, and there's no getting away from that.

Students from Michigan go to every market. The downside is that a lot of the friends you make in law school will end up being very far away from you after graduation.

Yes

People, culture, sports, school spirit, campus, brand, alumni base, job prospects

Weather, but really not much else. Words words words words.

You should go to this school no matter what. It is the best.
