Types of Financial Aid

Regent Law Scholarships & Grants

Regent Law scholarships and grants are only applicable toward the cost of tuition.

  • Only students who have been admitted to Regent Law are considered for law school scholarships and grants. The law school will review each student for aid within two weeks of the letter of admission.  An email notification will be sent following the review process.
  • Continuing students will be reviewed following the spring semester.  Email notifications will be sent by mid-June if a change in the award is merited.
  • All students should be familiar with the awarding and renewal criteria of the scholarships and grants, as well as the Policies and Procedures guiding the law school's financial aid program.

University-wide Scholarships and Grants

University-wide scholarships and grants are only applicable toward the cost of tuition.
