Does anybody know around how much Northwestern Law gives in need-based aid? Did anybody receive only need-based aid from NU Law?

You won't know what is need-based and what is merit-based, because they lump it all together. Do not count on need-based.

Pretty sure need-based aid at NU is a flame. Particularly because most of the student body isn't a dependent of their parents.

I know people who had a zero expected family contribution that got shit.
Maybe they factor into how much merit aid you get, but just being poor doesn't help. Nor should it really.
