Financing
a Legal Education
 Most
students will apply for some form of financial assistance
to finance their legal education. Some students have
never applied for financial aid while others are
familiar
with the process from their undergraduate education.
We
have collected a series of links and information below
to help students get started in the financial aid
process.
Important
things to keep in mind:
1. It is
the student's responsibility to apply for all financial
aid.
2. Fill out your Federal
Financial Aid application as soon as possible
after January 1st of the year you plan to attend law
school.
3. As soon as you get accepted to the law school you
decide to attend, Apply for Financial Aid at that
school.
4. Research Alternative loans if you need to borrow
more money. Apply for these loans as needed before
your first semester. Your law school should
be able to supply you with a list of lenders.
5. Financial Aid has deadlines. It is important to
know them and file early. FEDERAL
AID DEADLINES
Keep in mind, we are
not Financial Aid experts. If you want to speak to
an SFSU financial aid advisor, stop by the SFSU
Financial Aid Office. You can also contact a
law school Financial Aid Office to learn about information
specific to that school.
