Financial Aid

The GW Law Admissions and Financial Aid Office

The law school works with students on an individual basis to ensure that each receives the most generous aid package available. All admitted applicants will be considered for merit-based scholarships. These awards, which vary in amount, are based on the strength of applications; no separate scholarship applications are required. Grants are also awarded to admitted and continuing students based on financial need and availability of resources.

Approximately 80 percent of students receive some aid, including merit scholarships, need-based grants, and loans.
