Need-based scholarship decisions will be made by the Office of Admission based on financial need. There are no GPA or LSAT score requirements to qualify for need-based scholarship funds. Accepted students who are offered a merit scholarship do not also qualify for a need-based scholarship. There are separate applications for students enrolling in the spring semester and those enrolling in the fall semester. If you have any questions, please contact the Office of Admission by email or by phone at 843.377.2143.
