Bar Study Loan Information

Bar Study Loans are private education loans designed to assist law students and recent graduates with the costs of taking the bar exam (includes bar prep courses, exam fees and living expenses).

Students should exhaust their academic year budget before borrowing a Bar Study Loan.
These loans are not part of your financial aid package - you must apply directly with the lender of your choice.
Eligibility is based on creditworthiness, as determined by the lender. The interest rates, fees, borrowing limits and time frame in which you may borrow will vary by lender.
You select the loan disbursement date(s) and funds are sent directly to you (NOT to New England Law).
