Scholarship Information

LL.M Students

All LL.M applicants are considered for a scholarship and no additional application or essay is required.

Most students receive at least a partial tuition scholarship and highly qualified students may receive awards covering at least half their tuition cost. 

Outstanding academic performance, prior work experience, and enhancing the diversity of our LL.M class are all highly valued when considering scholarship awards.

Applicants are notified of a scholarship via email at the time they are admitted.

S.J.D. Students

Applicants are encouraged to seek funding and financial aid from additional sources.

The University of Wisconsin Law School has some financial aid available to S.J.D. students. Requests for financial aid can be made on the S.J.D. application when applying. 

Applicants will be notified if they are to receive financial aid via email, shortly after they are admitted.
