Thomas M. Cooley's tuition is very competitive with that of other private law schools, and it is among the most affordable private law schools.
Approximately 85% of all Cooley students receive financial aid in the form of loans and scholarships. The purpose of financial aid programs is to provide assistance to those students who could not continue school without that assistance. Since most financial aid programs, especially those of a gift nature, have been established to assist students to gain a basic education, aid for graduate/professional students is quite limited and usually of a self-help nature.
