1843 Scholars

The School of Law was founded in 1843 when there were fewer than 20 law schools in the nation. To commemorate the significance of that year, the School of Law established the 1843 Scholars Program. This scholarship rewards a small group of students for their outstanding academic achievements. The program awards a limited number of full tuition scholarships to incoming students each year. The 1843 Scholarship covers tuition for three years of full-time study and includes annual increases in tuition.

Each year, outstanding applicants are nominated by faculty and administration in the School of Law. Nominees will notified with their acceptance package.
