Cost of Attendance

The cost of attending New York Law School includes tuition and fees, room and board, books, supplies, and additional living expenses, which may vary. While the primary responsibility of financing your legal education rests with you and your family, the Office of Admissions and Student Financial Services is here to help you find resources to do so.

Financial aid may consist of funding from various sources, including loans, scholarships, grants, and work-study. We recommend you apply for financial aid immediately, even before receiving the Admissions Committee’s decision. For more information, visit our Financial Aid page and Scholarships page.

Tuition and fees are based on the 2024-25 academic year and are subject to change.
