Financial Aid


There are several ways to finance a legal education at Texas Tech Law.  Students use a combination of scholarships, grants, loans, and part-time employment in summer, or after their first year.  Texas Tech Law has a full-time financial aid advisor to assist in making your academic journey affordable.

Scholarships

In awarding scholarships to new students, Texas Tech Law uses the same factors considered in evaluating the applicant for admission.  All admitted students are automatically considered for any scholarship funds for which they are eligible.  Scholarships are also available to students in their second or third year of law school and are awarded on the basis of academic performance and financial need.

Non-Resident Tuition Waiver

Texas allows non-resident students who receive a competitive academic scholarship of at least $1000 to receive a waiver of non-resident tuition. Non-resident students who receive such a scholarship pay the equivalent of resident tuition, which represents an additional savings of over $10,000 per year.

Loans

Law students are eligible for Federal Direct Unsubsized Loans, Federal Direct PLUS Loans for Graduate/Professional students, and private loans.  For each type of loan, additional information is available at http://www.depts.ttu.edu/law/financialaid/other-aid.php
