Law school is a significant investment of time and money. As such, the decision to go to law school requires thoughtful research and financial planning. Students typically use a combination of federal student loans, personal savings, family support, and scholarships to finance law school.
Aspiring law students are encouraged to review the Law School Admission Council’s (LSAC’s) website for more information about paying for law school. Students should also investigate potential scholarship opportunities.
