AccessLex Institute is a nonprofit organization that strives to improve legal education for students and society as a whole. Since 1983, AccessLex has been dedicated to meeting the evolving needs of law students and institutions. They are committed to informing students about the economic realities of law school while still encouraging their aspirations.

AccessLex conducts and commissions research to shed light on the most critical issues facing legal education today. They also advocate for policymakers and influencers to take actions that enhance the effectiveness of legal education. As an organization supported by nearly 200 American Bar Association-approved nonprofit and state-affiliated law schools, AccessLex is focused on advancing legal education.

In addition to their headquarters in West Chester, PA, they have $800 million in total net assets. AccessLex offers two key programs: the AccessLex Center for Legal Education Excellence and the AccessLex Center for Education and Financial Capability. The former focuses on addressing barriers to law school access and increasing law school affordability, while the latter provides loan repayment and financial education programming to help students and graduates manage their finances effectively.
