Each year, approximately 80% percent of the Yale Law School students receive some form of financial aid and more than half qualify for law school grants. Yale Law School does not offer merit based scholarships; instead, all financial awards are based on need. In addition, the law school also offers COAP (Career Options Assistance Program), which is “a loan repayment assistance program that allows students to take jobs in nonprofit organizations, public interest, government, academia, or small firms.” (Yale Law Website)
