Our goal is to admit and enroll the best students from around the world, and we advise and guide students in identifying sources of funding to help cover tuition and living expenses.
How much does the LL.M. program cost?
The tuition rate tends to increase slightly each year, and current rates are available here.
Scholarships and Fellowships
Our Global Health Law Scholars program offers a limited number of partial tuition waivers to outstanding LL.M. candidates. Applicants will be selected by a committee based on their (1) academic qualifications in the fields of law/ethics and public health, health policy, health economics, bioethics, or other relevant disciplines; (2) public or private sector work experience on global or domestic health law issues, and (3) demonstrated potential for excellence within the field of global health law. Students’ financial needs may also be considered. Preference is given to full-time students.
To apply for the program, indicate your interest in being considered for the scholarship on your LL.M. application form and submit a supplemental essay of 500 words (max) on an issue of health law or policy that is of interest to you, along with a statement of your financial need.
Financial Aid
Students who are U.S. citizens or permanent residents may apply for financial aid in the form of loans. For more information, please visit the Georgetown Law Financial Aid website.
As part of the student visa application process, international students admitted to Georgetown Law must be able to demonstrate the ability to finance their entire course of study. We encourage international students to begin the search for financing as early in the process as possible by exploring loan and scholarship options that may be available through your home country’s government or other scholarship organizations.
