Welcome active-duty, military-connected, and veteran students

Seattle University School of Law is committed to serving and educating members of the military and their families. Our knowledgeable staff is here to guide you through the process, from application to graduation.

Applying to Seattle U Law

Take the LSAT for free through the Veterans Affairs’ National Testing Program, which reimburses the Law School Admission Test (LSAT) registration. Learn more about the application process.

Paying for law school

  • Seattle U Law participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program, which provides an additional $10,000 in funding for up to 32 JD students using GI Bill® benefits.
  • Veterans are also eligible for the Seattle U Law Community Service Stipend, a one-time $3,000 award (also offered to candidates with Peace Corps, AmeriCorps, VISTA, Teach for America, and other public service project experience). Candidates should indicate their service on their law school application or resume.
  • For questions about eligibility and other benefits-related questions, contact the Registrar’s Office at lawreg@seattleu.edu.

Finding community

Our Military & Veterans Law Society (MLVS) is guided by three pillars: mentorship, advocacy, and community. They host general meetings, community-building events, and panels with legal professionals. See more of their work on LinkedIn.

Taking the bar exam

After you have finished law school, the VA also provides reimbursement for the Washington State Bar Examination. Learn more about this program at WEAMS exams.
