After grants: what the sticker price does not show

The figures below are this school's reported averages across all students. What you would actually pay depends on where your scores land against its admitted class — the Loyola Marymount University-Los Angeles Law School scholarship calculator shows your position and the grant range that applies to it.

3-year sticker total$343,248
Median grant for full-time students$45,000 per year
Same median applied for 3 years$208,248
Students receiving grant aid62.0%
Grant range (25th–75th percentile)$35,000 – $52,000

The median is not an offer. Aid depends on your circumstances, whether the school is need-aware or merit-aware, and its aid budget in the year you attend. It is also reported for a single cohort, so it is not a guarantee across three years. This school does award condition-based scholarships — the retention rate matters more than the headline figure.

Cost against bar passage

Loyola Marymount University-Los Angeles reports a first-time bar passage rate of 79.72% across 286 takers in the most recent cohort and an ultimate passage rate of 94.64% for the class of 2024. Dividing the 3-year total by the first-time rate gives $4,306 per passage point.

This ratio compares price and outcome positioning only. Bar passage is measured across all takers at the school, is shaped substantially by how selective the school is, and predicts nothing about any individual student. See the full cost-versus-passage ranking for what this number does and does not mean.
