That’s why Seton Hall Law offers a variety of grants and scholarships, student employment, and federal student loans to enable you to finance your legal education.  All students are encouraged to apply as soon as possible after January 1.

In the 2012-13 academic year, the School of Law awarded approximately $34 million in financial aid; 85% of Seton Hall Law students receive financial assistance.  Our financial aid staff can provide you with sound advice throughout your legal education.  You may request a confidential meeting to discuss your specific needs and the various types of assistance that may be available to you. In addition you can receive assistance in planning and budgeting for law school costs. Your rights and responsibilities of various financial aid programs will be explained to you.
