Question about living expenses (any loans for that)?

Post by scifiguy » Sat Sep 15, 2012 3:20 pm

College junior/philosophy major researching law school at the moment. Hey folks! :P

I'm curious how students typically finance their living expenses if they go to law school? Do scholarships and loans pretty much only cover tuition?

Or do they also cover the cost of living? I'm thinking things like apartment rent, food, books, etc. Appreciate the help!

The school will provide a budget that includes cost of living and you can take out loans up to that amount.

I agree with Dany. Many students today have obtained scholarships, yet they find it hard to finance their education. Paying for food and transportation every single day are expenses that seem unbearable as the costs increase, and that can seem hard sometimes. That is why most of them have taken out loans to help them financially.
