Cooley Partnership with Oakland University
Cooley-Auburn Hills is the exclusive educational partner law school of Oakland University. Students graduating from OU who meet Cooleys admission requirements are given priority in selection of both campus and entering term. Cooley reserves a minimum of 15 seats per section for OU students at their Auburn Hills campus.
OU Honors College students earning a minimum GPA of 3.5 and a minimum LSAT score of 149 are eligible for early admission to Cooley during or after the second semester of their junior year, and these students are eligible for at least a 35 percent tuition scholarship, or more depending on their LSAT score and undergraduate GPA.
OU Honors College students who meet the criteria for the early admission program and are admitted to Cooley can begin their law school education early by taking two introductory courses at Cooleys Auburn Hills campus while enrolled at OU during their last or next to last semester.
Cooley and OU also offer MBA-JD and MPA-JD dual degree programs for interested students.
