Tuition
Tuition at Glendale University College of Law is an exceptional value in legal education!
Effective fall 2007, tuition at Glendale University College of Law is $335 per quarter unit. (For purposes of comparison, $335 per quarter unit equals $502.50 per semester unit.)
The total cost of tuition to earn a JD at GUCL is currently $42,210.
Glendale is able to offer a reasonably priced Juris Doctor program for several reasons:
-GUCL is institutionally stable.
-GUCL has conscientious and fiscally-sound management.
-GUCL seeks to maintain an educational opportunity that is financially accessible.
If keeping educational debt to a minimum is a consideration, compare the cost of earning a JD at GUCL with that of other accredited law schools in Southern California. Tuition at local ABA law schools is very expensive; students often graduate owing over $100,000 and many carry that debt with them for decades.
If your goal is to earn a JD from a reputable, accredited law school, to be eligible to sit for the California Bar Exam, and then to practice law in California, attending Glendale University College of Law would be an excellent choice.

Financial Aid Options
DEFFERED TUITION PLAN
The Deferred Tuition Plan is an excellent option for students wishing to keep academic debt to a minimum. By making monthly payments of tuition and fees each quarter, many students at Glendale graduate law school debt free!
When using the Deferred Tuition Plan, students pay quarterly tuition and fees in thirds; 1/3 at registration and then 1/3 again, typically on the 15th of each of the next two months. This credit arrangement is between the school and the student, no interest is charged, and the student can remain on the Plan as long as obligations are met in a timely manner.
Payment amounts vary depending on the number of units taken. A quarterly administrative fee of $45.00 applies.
STUDENT LOANS
Glendale University College of Law does not participate in federal student loan programs. Prospective students are encouraged to contact their own bank or credit union about securing a private loan or personal line of credit.
If your goal is to earn a JD from a reputable, accredited law school and to be eligible for the California Bar Exam, attending Glendale University College of Law would be an excellent choice.
