Tuition Update for GW Law 2020-2021


July 29, 2020

We hope this message finds you well. Please see the message below from Dean Bracey:

Dear GW Law students,

I am writing to follow up on Provost M. Brian Blake’s message to graduate students sent earlier this evening in which he announced that the planned tuition increases will not be applied to graduate students for the 2020-21 academic year.   

As I mentioned in my letter to you earlier this week, the dean’s office had been advocating for some form of tuition relief for law students. The university heard us and has agreed not to increase this year’s tuition as planned. Accordingly, law school tuition for the 2020-21 academic year will remain the same as it was in the 2019-20 academic year. This is a one-time adjustment in recognition of the financial and personal challenges that many of you and your families are experiencing as a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic.

We know you have questions. Therefore, on August 7, Deans Matthew and Hammond will host an online discussion to provide further details about the fall schedule, tuition, and our plans to serve you during the fall semester.

As we look forward to the commencement of the fall semester, I extend my very best wishes to you and your loved ones for good health and a productive, peaceful close to the summer.

 

Sincerely,

 

Christopher A. Bracey
Interim Dean and Professor of Law, GW Law
Vice Provost for Faculty Affairs, GW
