Hi Amy,
The cost of law school can differ a lot based on the school you pick, whether it's public or private, and its location. Typically, tuition for three years ranges from about $60,000 at a public in-state school to over $200,000 at some private schools.
Besides tuition, you should plan for living costs like housing, food, transportation, books, and personal expenses. These can add another $20,000 to $30,000 each year, depending on the city and your lifestyle.
It's crucial to think about both tuition and living expenses when planning for law school. Many students use scholarships, grants, loans, and sometimes part-time jobs to pay for their education.
If you're considering law school, research the schools you're interested in to understand their total costs and financial aid options. Think about where you would live and whether you can work part-time during your second and third years to help with expenses. Working for a few years before applying to law school to save money is also a good idea. Typically, you shouldn't work during your first year of law school.
Good luck!
