Financing Your Education

Part of Northeastern University School of Law’s commitment to using the law to make a difference, is making entrance to the field accessible. Each year we offer more than $1 million to first-year students based on a combination of need and merit. 

The School of Law has a number of programs to ensure you’ll get the support you need to earn a top-rate legal education. The Dean’s Scholarship is awarded based on merit and given to a large number of first-year students. The Public Interest Law Scholarship is our most generous award program, granting full tuition scholarships to several admitted applicants each year. There are also a number of co-op stipends for public interest law internships and other specific types of co-op placements, and the student-run Cooperative Income Sharing Program supports those who pursue non- or under-paid public interest co-ops.
