Through the generosity of 17吃瓜在线WCL friends and alumni, dozens of named scholarships are awarded annually. Selection criteria for these scholarships vary. Most commonly awards are based on financial need and academic achievement. There are scholarships specifically ear-marked for LL.M. students and those with a valid FAFSA on file are automatically considered during the fall semester; no separate institutional application is required. SJD students are not eligible to apply for Restricted Scholarships.
Federal education loans may be available to help off-set the cost of attendance. The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) must be completed to determine eligibility. A minimum enrollment of six credits is required to receive federal loans. For more detailed information on the federal loan programs and application process.
Private education loans may be available to help off-set the cost of attendance. Most lenders require the student applicant to have a U.S. citizen or permanent resident as a co-signer on the loan. All private education loans are based on the credit of the student applicant and the co-signer. The terms and conditions of the loan vary between lenders.
All private education loans must be certified by the 17吃瓜在线WCL Office of Financial Aid and borrowers must notify the office in writing when approved. Additional processing time is required and refunds for living expenses, if applicable, may be delayed.
