Cooley Law School

Thomas M. Cooley Law School is a private law school in Lansing, Michigan, and Riverview, Florida. It was established in 1972. At its peak in 2010, Cooley had over 3,900 students and was the largest US law school by enrollment; as of October 2024, Cooley had 420 students between its two campuses. In November 2025, Cooley failed to reach the 75% two-year bar passage required of ABA Standard 316 for continued accreditation and, effective 2025, was placed on probation. Cooley was removed from its probationary status and was found in full compliance two months later in November 2025.
