For the past four years, BARBRI Law Preview has used this scholarship to honor and recognize 10 entering law students who seek to use their law degree as agents of change.   The scholarship’s overwhelming popularity and the exposure it received from various outlets prompted us to expand the financial award in 2020 to $23,000: – First prize = $10k scholarship – Second prize = $5k scholarship – Eight Runners-Up = $1k scholarship

All scholarships are paid directly to each recipient’s law school on August 1, 2020 as a credit towards their 1L fall semester tuition.
