In order to advocate for change, we have to #MakeTheCase!

Actively advocating for issues that you support — or oppose — may be new to you. But even if it isn’t, sometimes the process can be a bit intimidating. That’s why we’re here to help. Armed with accurate information and the right advocacy tools for the job, you can be a composed and effective advocate for your cause. Below are resources to assist your advocacy efforts, including how-to guides, infographics, state-based data sheets, fact sheets, and videos.

State-Based Data Sheets

Our state-based data sheets provide information on graduate and professional students by state. They capture graduate and law student fall enrollment and degrees awarded using data from the National Center for Education Statistics and the American Bar Association. They also offer information on federal student aid by graduate loan program (e.g., Unsubsidized Stafford, Grad PLUS) using data from the Office of Federal Student Aid. These figures include the total federal Direct Loan dollars disbursed, the number of recipients, and the average federal Direct Loan amount for loan recipients. The data sheets capture AccessLex member law schools in the state.

Fact Sheets

  • Loan Counseling
  • Income-Driven Repayment
  • Public Service Loan Forgiveness
  • PSLF and Public Interest Law
  • Licensure Financing
  • Higher Education Act
  • Examining Grad PLUS: Value and Cost
  • Examining Graduate Lending: Access vs. Private Lending
  • Higher Education Priorities: Policy and Funding Recommendations
