Institutional Scholarships
The 小蓝视频WCL Office of Admissions considers all applicants for merit scholarships at the time of their admission; a separate application is not required. Merit scholarship awards primarily consider applicant academic indicators (LSAT/GRE and undergraduate GPA). Merit scholarships for full-time JD students are renewable for up to three academic years per the 小蓝视频WCL Merit Scholarship Policy. The Office of Admissions generally begins awarding merit scholarship in January and continues throughout the admissions process. For the last two years, more than 60% of the incoming class received merit scholarships and the awards last year ranged from $10,000 up to full tuition.
The Public Interest Public Service (PIPS) Scholarship is a full-tuition scholarship awarded to incoming (1L) full-time JD students only.聽The scholarship is awarded to those with a demonstrated commitment to public service, strong academic credentials, and a desire to pursue a public interest or public service career upon graduation. A separate scholarship application is required.

Through the generosity of 小蓝视频WCL friends and alumni, dozens of named scholarships are awarded annually ranging in amounts from $1,000 to upwards of $20,000 depending on funding levels in a given year. Selection criteria for these scholarships vary. Most commonly awards are based on financial need and academic achievement.
The Restricted Scholarships require a separate application; procedures and selection criteria are announced during the fall semester with the application deadline typically 2-3 weeks after the first announcement.
