Univ. of Toledo caps law-school tuition costs for 2014

TOLEDO — The University of Toledo College of Law today announced that new full-time students who are residents of Ohio or Michigan entering in fall 2014 will pay no more than $17,900 per year in tuition for all three years of law school.

Each full-time, new student from Ohio or Michigan will receive a scholarship in an amount that assures he or she pays no more than $17,900 in tuition when they begin their studies academic year 2014-15, according to a university press release.

This scholarship will be renewed in an amount that assures the student also pays no more than $17,900 per year in tuition for academic years 2015-16 and 2016-17, even if tuition increases.
