Scholarship awards are available and remain valid for your entire law school career so long as you stay in good academic standing.

► Real Practice Experience: Before graduation, you can interact with real clients, try a real case in state trial and appellate court, learn to draft agreements, serve the community, and do much more under the supervision and mentoring of our expert faculty. After graduation, you can immediately apply this experience in law and a variety of other fields.

Our national championship trial teams and top student-run law review illustrate the possibilities. Our employment placement rate evidences the same.
