Law school loans
The LAWLOANS program lets you finance the entire cost of your law school education offering a combination of LAWLOANS Stafford, Graduate PLUS, and private student loans.
When you combine LAWLOANS federal and private student loans, you get the convenience of one combined monthly payment, life-of-loan servicing, and 24/7 online account management. Additionally, with LAWLOANS, you can focus on your studies and not have to worry about repaying your loans while you are in school. Unpaid interest that accrues while you are in school will be capitalized at repayment.
Sallie Mae’s streamlined application process lets you get LAWLOANS Stafford, Grad PLUS, and Private loans quickly and easily. You are encouraged to start with a LAWLOANS Stafford Loan and then a Graduate PLUS loan.
If you need additional funding or are ineligible for a federal loan, apply for LAWLOANS Private Loan. Stafford Loans have lower interest rates than Grad PLUS loans, and both generally have lower rates than private loans.
If you need to finance expenses associated with taking bar exam, the Bar Study Loan can help. The loan is available to you if you are enrolled at least half-time in your final year of study at an ABA-accredited law school, or have graduated from such a school within the last 12 months. You must take bar exam no later than 12 months after graduation.
