Explanation of Types of Scholarships

Endowed awards are provided to the law school as approved by the university on an annual basis.  Awarding amounts, as determined by the performance of the endowments, vary from year to year.  Most endowments entail specific criterion and the law school will award based upon acacemic standing, stated criterion, and information from the students' annual law school financial aid application. Endowments are typically awarded to continuing students and are non-renewable.

General law school awards are available to most students who satisfy specific award criterion. Funds are provided via the law school's financial aid budget; therefore, awards are limited and exist until funds are exhausted. Most awards are renewable per the stated criterion.

Named awards entail very specific criterion and require an essay and/or faculty recommendation. 

Partnership scholarships require prior affiliation with the named ministry, including a letter of recommendation from the current staff member of the ministry chapter which the student participated.  Awards are made as students enter law school (first year) and include renewal requirements.
