Financial Aid for Public Service

Harvard Law School offers generous programs to enable and support public service careers:

  • Summer Public Interest Funding

    Student Financial Services provides Summer Public Interest Funding (SPIF) for students who choose to work in unpaid/underpaid public interest jobs during the summers after their 1L and/or 2L years. You do not have to be a financial aid recipient to receive funding.

  • Low Income Protection Plan

    The Low Income Protection Plan (LIPP) is Harvard Law School's loan repayment assistance program (LRAP). It covers all public sector jobs, and law-related jobs in the low-income private sector.
