Law school tuition

Can You Write Off Law School Tuition?
Short answer: Not as a deduction (it trains you for a new profession), but it counts for the Lifetime Learning Credit.
Student loan interest is deductible later up to $2,500.
Records to keep: Keep receipts, statements (1098, 1098-T, 1099, W-2G), and a note of what each cost was for. Compare itemizing to the 2026 standard deduction before you claim.
