CU Law Profiles
Featured Questions & Answers

I have federal loans as well as an Alternative Law Loan because my expenses are a little higher than the allowance. In addition, I was awarded the Daniel Barash Scholarship, which is designated for students participating in a criminal clinic and intending to work for the Colorado Office of the State Public Defender or other indigent defense services provider.

Currently I am only taking the subsidized loans. During my time at CU I have received a scholarship each year for at least $1,000. The biggest ?scholarship? I received was in-state tuition after my first year of law school because I established residency in my first year.

I was fortunate to receive a small scholarship and also get a monthly stipend from the Montgomery GI Bill. Both help with the sting of out-of-state tuition.

If you are out-of-state, one of the great things about CU is that after one year you are eligible for in-state-tuition. This is one of the only schools in the nation that offers this, and it is great.
