Financial Planning

Congratulations! We are proud that you are considering GW Law for your legal studies.

The GW Law School Financial Aid Office will assist you in financing your law school education. Our staff helps you establish a school-year budget, learn about the types of aid available and navigate the application process, borrow wisely, and prepare for student loan repayment. We also advise you about the positive and negative impact student loans may have on your credit, and how borrowing may affect decisions about your life goals.

In addition to financial aid counseling, the Law School Financial Aid Office's most important function is the delivery of your financial aid.  We will work with you to process your aid expeditiously.

Please submit 2025-2026 Financial Aid forms by June 15, 2025.

We hope you find the information we've provided here useful in making your decisions about financing law school. Please contact our office if you have any questions.
