Loan Repayment Assistance

Loan Repayment Assistance Programs, or LRAPs, offer postgraduate assistance by, depending on eligibility, paying a certain amount toward loan debt for graduates working in public interest positions.

UNC Law is proud to announce its loan repayment assistance program. The UNC LRAP was launched in February 2009. Please read the press release highlighting the program. You can also visit the UNC Loan Repayment Assistance Program website for more information and the application. For more information, please contact Lisa Inman, director of law school financial aid.

Additionally, UNC Law helps to fund our statewide program, NC LEAF, which is available to graduates working in public interest positions in North Carolina.
