Cost of Attendance
The cost of attendance is the maximum amount of financial aid that a student at Saint Louis University School of Law can receive per academic year.
Cost of attendance helps the SLU Office of Student Financial Services determine the amount of financial aid each student is eligible to receive; the Office of Student Financial Services determines the cost of attendance for each academic program. The cost of attendance is our estimation of what it could cost a student to live and go to school.
The most recent information is based on the results of a student email survey and current tuition rates. The cost-of-attendance budget is for the individual student, not for a family. The budget is reviewed each year and altered as needed.
If you're considering summer enrollment, review the summer cost-of-attendance information.
