Law school with a $92,200 nine-month cost of attendance decides to make itself more affordable

By allowing students to take a test that costs $160 rather than one that costs $227.  Harvard is increasing its cost of attendance by nearly $4,000 this fall, marking the 3,573rd year in a row that the law school has raised tuition faster than the inflation rate.

I assume HLS is gaming the rankings here in some way (it just slipped to third behind Stanford — sad!) by allowing applicants to submit a GRE instead of an LSAT score.   But ideology is a hell of a drug, so no doubt they’ve actually talked themselves into sincerely believing this is all about “access.”

BTW the law school’s endowment was $1.8 billion as of last June, which works out to about $50,000 of expendable endowment income annually for every JD student.
