What it costs
| Sticker tuition (2025) | $13,770/yr |
| Resident | $13,770/yr |
| Nonresident | N/A on file/yr |
| 3-year sticker total | $41,310 |
| Pays full sticker | 40.2% |
| Gets some grant | 59.8% |
59.8% of the class gets some grant, but 40.2% still pay full sticker, so a score above the 158 75th percentile matters here more than the low tuition number might suggest.
What you get out (Class of 2024)
| Class year reported | 2024 |
| FT/LT employed, 10 months out | 80.4% |
| Biglaw (101+ lawyer firms) | 2.2% |
| Federal clerkships | 2.2% |
| Government + public interest | 27.5% |
| Bar pass rate | 75.4% |
80.4% of the 2024 class landed a full-time, long-term job within 10 months, biglaw took just 2.2%, and at $13,770 a year, the low sticker price means the debt math holds up even without a big firm job.
