LSAC Fee Waivers 2009-2010

The Law School Admission Council dedicates funds, through its Fee Waiver Program, to support law school access for all applicants regardless of their ability to pay for the LSAT and associated services. Applicants can apply online for fee waivers directly through LSAC, or through an ABA-approved law school.

1. General Information
The 2009-2010 LSAC Fee Waiver will be valid for up to two years and will cover the following LSAC services only:

Two LSATs $ 264.00
Credential Assembly Service (LSDAS) $ 169.00
(4 reports, LOR)
The Official LSAT SuperPrep $ 28.00

Total $ 461.00

To be considered for a fee waiver, you'll need to be a US citizen, a US national, or a permanent resident alien of the United States with an Alien Registration Receipt Card. Fee waivers are intended for only the most needy applicants, and you'll need to demonstrate this by including some of your income information on the application. You should only apply if you really can't afford the fees.

You can apply through the LSAC or through an ABA-approved law school, but all allplications must go through the LSAC. To apply online, go to the LSAC's Fee Waiver website. If you apply through a law school, you should make sure to allow enough time for the school to process and return the form to the LSAC before the registration deadline for the LSAT you'd like to take.
