You don’t need another university telling you why they’re great. So, we flipped the script. We made a website that’s adapted to what you want. Think of it like a compass for your individual UM journey. Let’s see where we can go together.

At the Blewett School of Law, our students learn in an environment that blends theory
with practical experience. A third-year clinic experience gives students the opportunity
to pull together skills they've acquired in the first two years of law school and
apply it.
Outside the classroom, law students build community and gain valuable experience by
engaging in law reviews, moot court competitions, and deep-dive courses that take
them on the road across the state and abroad.
Cost of attendance is among the most important considerations when weighing your options for law school. As you consider tuition and costs, know that UM's Alexander Blewett III School of Law is nationally ranked for its affordability.
A law school unlike any other “I came to [UM Law] because of its smaller community where people care. Students at
other schools will get to write papers about people like Bernard Pease [a wrongfully
convicted Montana man]; we get to actually help.” “I was really young when I had my kids, and they are my first priority. I made a promise
to them that I would better our lives through improving our opportunities. Law school
is the path that will create these opportunities for us.” "Research and writing are essential, and our professors set really high standards.
I think that makes such a difference when you are starting to write for the court." #103 nationally among Best Law Schools 94.5% bar passage rate 80 students per incoming class 20% minority students in Class of '25 No. 5 in US for clerkship placement No. 34 Environmental Law program in nation
