Phillip Robinson Memorial Scholarship
Laws shape the way our world works and the next generation of attorneys will determine what our future looks like.
Unfortunately, law school is an expensive investment that offers limited opportunities for financial aid. Additionally, the rigorous nature of the curriculum makes it difficult for many law students to work while in school, making the financial burden even more significant.
This scholarship seeks to honor the memory of Phillip Robinson by supporting law students who have financial need as they pursue their education.
Any low-income undergraduate or graduate student who is currently enrolled in law school or is actively applying to law school may apply for this scholarship.
To apply, tell us why you want to practice law.
