Scholarship Opportunities
Students may apply for direct financial assistance from private and public organizations. These organizations offer scholarships, grants or low-interest loans to students who meet specific criteria determined by each organization. Such donors include county and state bar associations, law spouses groups, veterans organizations, church and ethnic organizations, college or university alumni associations, and corporations with tuition programs for employees.
