Financial Aid and Scholarships

Students enrolled in Emory Law’s MLS may request federal and state financial aid by completing their FAFSA. Emory’s FAFSA code is 001564.

Applicants to the MLS Program are automatically considered for merit-based scholarships. Emory Law has a limited number of scholarships available to highly qualified students. Students will be notified about any scholarship offer as part of their letter of acceptance.

Please note, students will receive the highest scholarship they qualify for, but they will not receive more than one scholarship.

Founder’s Scholarship

We offer a 15% scholarship to members of the following associations who are beginning the Master of Legal Studies program in the current academic year.

  • Atlanta Association of Legal Administrators (AALA)
  • Georgia Society of CPAs (GSCPA)
  • International Association of Business Communicators (IABC)
  • Public Relations Society of America (PRSA)
  • Society for Human Resource Professionals (SHRM)

All enrolled students at Emory University, including those enrolled in the school of law’s online degree programs, are subject to the university’s tuition refund policy. That includes the policy’s schedule of reduced refund levels, with the passage of additional days following the start of the relevant semester (i.e., spring, summer, or fall). Even as to classes that start in the middle of the term, thus, any withdrawal must occur at the start of relevant term, if any refund is to be received.
