Named Scholarships
Named Scholarships are available to current JD students only. New and prospective students should review our first-year scholarship opportunities. Students in the LLM or Master’s programs should contact the Office of Graduate Admissions for information on scholarship opportunities.
Applications for named awards are collected once in the Spring. We currently collect applications for about 40 scholarships each year.
Total scholarship awards (which can consist of multiple Named Scholarships) vary in amount from year to year, but are generally $2,000 - $5,000.
Applications for 2025-2026 are closed.
Future applications can be submitted through DocuSign. DocuSign eliminates the need to print and scan documents and allows for the secure collection of attachments. If you experience issues with DocuSign, please contact the Financial Management Office at financialmanagement@law.du.edu or 303.871.6557. The form will require email validation, which also permits you to return and complete the application later. Once you enter your email, a code will be emailed to you with a subject that includes “Email Validation”. To return later, select “Other Actions” from the top right and select “Finish Later”. You must sign and submit the document with required attachments before your scholarship application is complete. You will receive a copy of the completed form for your records upon completion.
