Summer Costs
J.D. and LL.M. students registering and paying for a minimum course load of three credits in the summer may borrow a Federal Direct GradPLUS loan or commercial education loan. Courses taken in the summer, but whose payment is postponed until fall, are not eligible for consideration towards half-time summer enrollment.

Study at Other Law Schools
Students with permission to take courses at another law school in summer (or during the academic year) need to provide the Law School Finaincial Aid Office with information on all costs at the school they will attend. A consortium agreement must be signed by the Law School Financial Aid Office and the financial aid office of the host school. Students studying at other law schools during the summer may borrow private loans or the Federal Direct GradPLUS loans.
Students receiving summer loans to cover tuition plus living expenses may apply for a refund of their credit balance after tuition charges are paid. Once you file your refund request form at Colonial Central, GW will mail you a refund check.
