About Access Group
Founded in 1983, Access Group is a nonprofit membership organization comprised of 196 nonprofit and State-affiliated ABA-approved law schools.

During the course of our 30+ year existence, we became a leading provider of affordable student loans for aspiring professionals in law, medicine, dentistry, health, business, and other disciplines. As such, we served as a national originator, holder and servicer of federally guaranteed and private, credit-based loans, funding more than $18 billion of education loans since 2001.

In recent years, we have focused on our member services activities, financial education and resources, research and advocacy functions.
