For a law school nest egg, aim for $10k. That will enable you to pay moving costs, security deposits and upfront rent, books, and miscellaneous things that come up - travel to job fairs, summer room and board if you get a job in a different city than your law school, car repairs, a suit for interviewing, etc.

Remember that you’re paying all of your living costs and it often takes a month to disburse loan money.
