Alumni Memorial Scholarship Award

The Alumni Memorial Scholarship is awarded annually during the Hilary Term Honors Convocation. The award is funded by the yearly interest income generated from the principal balance of the Alumni Memorial Scholarship Fund.  

Eligibility is limited to students in good standing who have earned between 30 and 80 credit hours and who complete a scholarship application. The Alumni Association Executive Committee selects recipients based on the following criteria: demonstrated need, character, and potential to become an outstanding lawyer.

Since establishing the scholarship in 1989, the Alumni Association has awarded more than $154,000 in scholarships through this award.
