Scholarships

Incoming Students 

Thanks to the generosity of the many friends and supporters of the University of Wisconsin Law School, we are able to award scholarships to a large number of entering students each academic year. Scholarships are awarded on the basis of merit, need, academic background, personal qualifications, or some combination depending on the individual scholarship.All incoming first-year students are automatically considered for scholarships and tuition waivers.

Current Students

Continuing students should submit an updated scholarship request by the summer prior to the coming academic year.  The reapplication should take the format of a formal, written letter submitted to the Law School Financial Aid Office.  Scholarship awards are made on a rolling basis.  Upper level students (second-year and third-year students) may also apply for the special scholarships, available as received by the Financial Aid Office.
