Michigan Law School is a public college located in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The school offers students who are pursuing a career in law a chance to earn a degree in various areas such as Law and Business Administration and Law and Natural Resources. Students have the option to enroll in the summer for an early education program that helps prepare them for law school. Many student choose to take advantage of this program because it allows them to be flexible with their course selection throughout the year and gives them an idea of what to expect in future classes.

In addition to their impressive law degrees, the school also offers a variety of student activities and clubs that students may join. This allows the students to participate in activities other than course work and helps them build friendships and team building skills. These activities include various school sports teams including hockey, a rock climbing club and many school newspapers and publications.

The law school gives students the option to live off campus or on campus in dorms or student housing. Most student dorms are located within a three minute walk from the campus. Many off-campus homes are also within walking distance of the campus. Some students prefer to skip dorm life and choose to live in on-campus sorority or fraternity houses.

The Michigan Law School campus is considered one of the most beautiful in the United States. This helps create a relaxing atmosphere where students can concentrate on their studies. The school is very focused on academics and is often willing to change their curriculum to meet the needs and desires of their students. Students appreciate the school’s willingness to add and change classes to fit the schedule and needs of student groups. Many notable people have graduated from the college including President Obama’s senior adviser, Valerie Jarrett, and ABC News journalist, Bob Woodruff.
