As one of only two state-supported law schools in Michigan, Wayne Law offers resident tuition rates that are the most affordable of any law school in the state. The Law School's nonresident tuition rates are extremely competitive with those of private law schools and law schools in other states, and our Good Neighbor Program and variety of scholarship opportunities can make a Wayne Law education even more affordable.
