Do I have to submit parent information to be eligible for financial aid? Is there a financial independence policy?
Yes, if you wish to be considered for a Hofstra Law School need-based grant or loan assistance you must submit parental information. Even though the Federal government considers you financially independent of your parents for the purposes of determining eligibility for Federal funds, HLS policy requires that eligibility for its institutional need-based grant or loan assistance be based on your full family’s financial strength. The only exception to this policy is if you meet HLS’s Seven-Year Independence standard.
