The University of Idaho College of Law is one of the best options for students wishing to pursue a degree in the legal sector. It's one of the most affordable, and just as importantly, it's one of the most overlooked schools. With Idaho residents enjoying costs that equate to about fifty percent less than any other educational facility in the region, it's a great choice. Here, we'll delve into this mid-western campus and take a look at its enrollment, costs, scholarships, and ability to assist students who might need help with financial aid.

Life as a University of Idaho Law Student

The campus enjoys an enrollment of around 12,000 undergraduates and close to 2,000 graduate students. Its law campus is home to around 300 students at any given time. Its campus has been voted the campus of choice in the West and for good reason. The beautiful grounds are home to spectacular traditional ivy covered brick buildings, green grass as far as the eye can see and trees that provide shade for those who far prefer the outdoors after those long winters. It remains one of the most advanced colleges for everything technology related and because the campus is all-inclusive, it offers a safe environment for its students.

The small town of Moscow, Idaho only has around 25,000 residents and is located in North Central Idaho. The community is warm and welcoming with that sense of enclosed comfort. Many of the town's shopping centers and restaurants are within walking distance for the students who call the campus home. Its proximity to Washington State University is an added bonus. It's less than ten miles from Pullman, Washington.

One thing is certain: the 18 hole golf course, a new student recreation center and the never ending concerts and films are enough of an incentive for any soon to be lawyer.

Costs and Fees Associated with Idaho College of Law

For Idaho residents, tuition is around $13,000 a year and for those who do not reside in Idaho, it's just over $24,500. Room and board is just over $9,300 per year and a student can expect to pay around $1,500 for books and supplies. Another $5,000 covers miscellaneous and transportation costs. This totals to around $41,000 for non-residents and $29,500 for Idaho residents.

Scholarship Availability
United States

The College of Law has several scholarships that each applicant is automatically considered for upon application submission. There are scholarships that cover the tuition in its entirety as well as several other limited scholarships that awarded based on academic achievements and the needs of the student. Further, the school also maintains a list of more than 615 external funding options that are typically sponsored by community foundations, bar associations and various law firms.

Financial Aid Assistance
