Cooley's Approach to Legal Education
Cooley Law School stands firm in its belief that the study of law should not be an esoteric pursuit or the practice of law an elitist profession. The school was founded on the premise that an individual's formal knowledge of the law is beneficial to society as a whole, and that the strength of a democracy depends upon the ability of people to understand their laws.
Toward that end, Cooley Law School is proud of its reputation of offering admission opportunities to a diverse group of applicants.
Cooley Law School enters three terms each year in January, May, and September and operates on a "rolling admissions" system, which means applications are processed at the time they are received.
When all required materials are received by the Admissions Office, a decision is made and the applicant is informed of his or her admission status.
