Application Fee

All applications for admission must be accompanied by payment of a $60 application fee. Checks or money orders drawn on a U.S. bank should be made payable to the University of Michigan; we cannot accept cash. Online applications may be paid for with a credit card.

Alternatively, a fund has been established to cover the application fees of individuals who demonstrate financial need. You may print our PDF fee waiver application and mail a completed copy to the Admissions Office.   Fee waiver applications need to be completed in their entirety.  Failure to provide complete information in a timely manner will result in denial of a fee waiver request.

Please note that it is only necessary to complete a Fee Waiver Application for Michigan Law if (1) you have not received an LSAC Fee Waiver, or (2) you have received an LSAC Fee Waiver but are not applying through LSACD (that is, you are submitting a paper application or are applying on-line through Embark).  If you have received an LSAC Fee Waiver and are applying via LSACD, LSAC’s system will automatically credit you.
