What it costs, how graduates fare
- Tuition2025-26
$26,490–$31,360 full-time · resident to non-resident · plus $122 annual fees
Living expenses $25,600 on campus
Tuition and the fees the school certifies alongside it — not a full cost of attendance.

- Bar passageclass of 2025
84.1%first-time+6.4
77.7% is the average for all ABA-accredited schools’ graduates in the same jurisdictions this school’s graduates sat in · 106 of 126 first-time takers passed
95.4% of the class of 2023 were admitted within two years of graduating
A pass rate on its own says as much about which states a school feeds as about the school, so the ABA’s own like-for-like average is shown with it.

Ten months after graduation · 3 more in JD-advantage jobs · 5 still seeking
The ABA collects employment status and job type only. It collects no salary, so no salary figure comes from this filing.

No law school publishes a graduation rate, so this is not one. It is the students who left in their first year, academic and other, as filed. Transfers out are reported separately and are not counted here.

- EarningsCollege Scorecard
Not a starting salary.
$61,710 median one year after finishing
$107,773 is the national median at four years for the same credential
A College Scorecard median for 2017-18 and 2018-19 completers who received federal aid, measured a fixed number of years after they finished — not what this year’s graduates are being paid, and not a figure the school or the ABA publishes. The ABA collects no salary data at all.

- Transcripts via LSAC CASRequiredstart by Jun 24, 2027
Notes & source
All applicants (including GRE and JD-Next takers) must register for LSAC's Credential Assembly Service (CAS); the school requests the LSAC Law School Report when it receives the application. Transcripts from all undergraduate institutions attended are required, and a bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university must be earned by the law school enrollment date. Most international applicants must submit transcripts for postsecondary work completed outside the U.S., its territories, or Canada through the LSAC JD Credential Assembly Service (JD-CAS); work completed through a study-abroad, consortium, or exchange program sponsored by a U.S. or Canadian institution and clearly indicated on the transcript is exempt. Applicants whose undergraduate degree is from a school where English was not the language of instruction must submit a TOEFL score to LSAC (institution code 0058, department code 03); target scores are approximately 100 iBT TOEFL or a 7.5 IELTS overall, with subsection scores also reviewed.

- LSAT or GRERequiredstart by May 16, 2027
Notes & source
LSAT, GRE, or JD-Next accepted, as long as the score was earned within five years of the expected date of entry into law school. Arizona Law was the first law school to accept the GRE (February 2016) and created JD-Next (founded at Arizona Law in 2019; the ABA has granted a variance allowing admission on JD-Next scores). LSAT takers apply through LSAC/CAS, which forwards LSAT results for the prior five years; per the Application Options page, 'If you have already taken the LSAT, those scores will be considered regardless of other scores you submit with your application.' GRE takers must instruct ETS to send all GRE scores from the prior five-year period (ETS UA code 2670) and must still participate in CAS. For Fall 2026 entry, the last administrations considered were the April 2026 LSAT, a GRE sat by May 3, 2026, and the February 2026 JD-Next administration. Eligible applicants to Advanced Admissions for Non-U.S. Lawyers do not need an LSAT, GRE, or JD-Next score. RE-READ 2026-10-07 against the fall 2027 page: the five-year validity rule and the three accepted tests are unchanged; the cutoffs have rolled to the April 2027 LSAT ('The last LSAT administration we are able to consider is the April 2027 test'), a GRE sat by May 2027, and the February 2027 JD-Next administration.

Administrative
- Application feeRequiredat submission
Notes & source
$40. FAQ wording: 'Arizona Law requires a low application fee of $40 for JD candidates.' The 2025 ABA Standard 509 report also lists a $40 application fee. Neither page mentions fee waivers — recorded as the pages' silence, not as waivers being unavailable. RE-READ 2026-10-07: the FAQ still reads 'Arizona Law requires a low application fee of $40 for JD candidates.'
