Save Hundreds on your Law School Applications with this Fee Waiver Request Template

Updated: Nov 26


Applying to law school can be expensive. Between LSAT fees, CAS reports, and application fees, the costs can add up quickly—and that’s before you even think about tuition! But here’s the good news: many law schools offer application fee waivers, and requesting one can be as simple as sending the right email.


The Value of Fee Waivers:


Fee waivers can save you hundreds of dollars, especially if you’re applying to a large number of schools. They’re particularly helpful for students on tight budgets who want to maximize their chances by applying widely. Generally speaking, the average applicant can expect to get anywhere between 1/3 and 2/3 of their application fees waived!


Fee Waiver Request Template:


We’ve created a simple, professional template to help you request fee waivers from law schools. All you need to do is fill in your details, and you’re ready to go.
