The annual cost of attendance (COA) is your actual tuition costs plus additional averaged amounts for living expenses, books, supplies, and loan fees. The total of all of your financial aid cannot exceed the cost of attendance.

2009-10 Living Expenses

Expenses for Nine-Month Academic Year	Full time	Part time
Housing, Utilities, Food, Transportation, and Personal	$7,200/semester	$7,200/semester
Books and Supplies	$775/semester	$700/semester
Loan fees	$700/semester	$700/semester
Total for one year including loan fees	$ 8,675/semester	$8,600/semester

The living expense portion of the annual cost of attendance is designed to be a modest, adequate budget and is sufficient for most students. Increases to the cost of attendance can be made for reasonable child-care expenses, a one-time computer purchase of up to $2,000, unusual uninsured medical expenses, or student health insurance premiums for the months of academic enrollment. Submit the appropriate adjustment form together with the required documentation to the Financial Aid Office. In most instances, increasing the cost of attendance will result in increased eligibility for non-federal, alternative loans.

Taking care of business

William Mitchell College of Law strongly encourages prospective law students to complete and file their federal tax returns for the previous year as soon as possible after Jan. 1, so that actual income information can be used on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).

Student Accounts

Tuition payment

William Mitchell College of Law accepts payments on student accounts by checks or cash.

Payments are due by the 1st of every month and have a 15-day grace period. Accounts with an unpaid balance by the 16th of each month will be assessed an interest charge of .67% per month. Failure to receive a bill does not relieve the student from their financial obligations or interest charges if the account is not paid by the due date. If you have not received your billing statement, please contact our office at (651) 290-6312. 

Tuition and other charges are billed in July for fall term and in December for the spring term. Fall charges are due on September 1, 2009 and spring charges are due on February 1, 2010.

Two payment plans

Pay in full each semester/session or choose installment payments
