American States University is a unique hybrid mix of online, in class and in field education. It is a unique and creative educational brainchild of its Founder, President and Chancellor. American States came from humble beginnings; took advantage of all of the opportunities offered by this great country; and is now giving back those same opportunities to his future students. 

ASU believes that financial challenges should NOT be a barrier to higher education. This is not the case with ASU thanks to the creative and philanthropic participation of American States.

ASU provides the following sliding tuition scale to address the financial barriers encountered by the financially challenged working poor. 
The following is based on a regular yearly tuition of $14,500 per year.
If you earn less than $15,000 per year; you are eligible for a 100% scholarship each year.
If you earn less than $25,000 per year; you are eligible for a 75% scholarship each year.
If you earn less than $35,000 per year; you are eligible for a 50% scholarship each year.
If you earn less than $45,000 per year; you are eligible for a 25% scholarship each year.
If you earn more than $45,000 per year; you are eligible for no scholarship; but you are still eligible for ASU’s $14,500 yearly tuition; which is still 1/3 of the average law school tuition average of $45,230 per year. [See details in Tuition Section infra]
