TUITION INCREASES AT ALL ABA LAW SCHOOLS (2005-)

Here you will find the tuition increases at all ABA-accredited law schools from the school year ending in 2005. The numbers are from the ABA-LSAC Official Guide to ABA-Approved Law Schools via the LSAC and the law schools’ websites for the most recent school year. I will continue to update it. This page was originally the second part of a three-part essay on the law school tuition bubble. Links to Part 1 and Part 3. Law school tuition appears to be increasing linearly at private law schools. You can find my projections for them here.

Puerto Rico

(1. Puerto Rico’s GDP Purchasing Power Parity Per Capita (puh-puh-puh-puh) is about half that of any individual U.S. state, so any Puerto Ricans attending these law schools are effectively paying double what other law students are paying.

2. My background is in East Asian languages, not Romance languages, but I was able to find the “cóstas” on some of these law schools’ websites before they crashed my browser.)

BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY LAW SCHOOL – Private – 1973

(BYU is weird because it’s private but charges based on whether students are LDS. It appears U.S. News reports the Non-LDS tuition. It’s hard to predict where tuition will go because the Church of Latter-day Saints pays 50% of the law school’s operating costs. Thus, predictions should be taken more lightly than with other private law schools.)
