Expenses not included in the COA
Students can request a COA adjustment to reflect a one-time purchase of a computer for use during the program. Also, students who have other non-discretionary expenses not included in the cost of attendance budget (e.g., childcare expenses), should inform our office to discuss the circumstances and review the expenses that may be added to the COA.
Any requests must be made in writing and include appropriate documentation. Please note that it is extremely rare for the Law School Financial Aid Office to increase the student budget for anything other than childcare expenses or a one-time purchase of a computer. Requests for COA adjustments should be emailed or delivered to Alison Brande, Assistant Director of Law School Financial Aid.
