How does NYU Calculate My Student Contribution for LRAP Purposes?
NYU School of Law expects all students to contribute a significant portion of their personal assets towards their educational expenses over the course of three years. Individual student contributions are computed in accordance with federal and institutional guidelines, and therefore they will vary from one student to the next based on an individual’s assets and earnings. The amount of your student contribution will be based on the information that you provided on the NYU School of Law financial aid application and/or your FAFSA information upon entrance. If you did not complete the NYU School of Law application or the FAFSA, your assumed annual student contribution will be the cost of tuition. We do not recalculate or adjust a student contribution after the initial calculation, with the exception of summer earnings.
