The Scholarship Fund will award $5,000 of financial assistance annually to each scholarship recipient attending an ABA-accredited law school.  An award made to an entering first-year student may be renewable for two additional years, resulting in financial assistance totaling $15,000 during his or her time in law school.

 Completed scholarship applications must be received by April 6, 2018. 

 Recipients will be selected based on their qualifications for the scholarship and not on the law school they plan to attend.  Therefore, law students applying to any and all ABA-accredited law schools may benefit from these scholarships.
