Public Interest Law Support

At Northeastern University School of Law, we are committed providing access to all admitted students. In particular, we offer special support for students undertaking public interest law co-ops and careers.

We encourage you to explore the many ways in which we demonstrate our commitment to social justice and public interest law. We are pleased to offer the prestigious Public Interest Law Scholarship as well as other scholarships, co-op stipends and a post-graduate Loan Deferral and Forgiveness Program and we encourage you to find out more about the new College Cost Reduction and Access Act. Our history and mission are deeply tied to public interest law, and we strongly encourage all of our students to make public service a part of their lives regardless of which area of law they choose to practice.
