RJT Law School Scholarship
Scholarship Sponsored by RJT Criminal Defense
RJT Criminal Defense has established a scholarship of $1,000 which will be applied to the successful applicant's tuition at law school.
The path to a career in the law is a long and arduous one. But the benefits are significant. At the same time, having a law degree puts one in a position to make a positive impact on society, whether at the local level or beyond. And we believe that the benefits that accompany a law school education come with the responsibility to make a positive impact in the world.
Becoming an attorney is a lengthy and expensive process. Even full-time law students generally spend three full years after college before they graduate law school and prepare to take the bar exam. At RJT Criminal Defense, we want to encourage those seeking a law degree to fulfill their educational goals. By offering this tuition scholarship, we hope to ease the road, to at least some degree, toward completion of a student's legal education.
The scholarship will consist of a direct tuition payment of $1,000 to the law school attended - or to be attended - by the successful applicant. You need not be attending law school when you submit your application for the scholarship, but the scholarship must be used within a year from the date of the award. This must be for attendance at a law school located in the United States which is accredited by the American Bar Association.
Eligible Applicants
U.S. citizens who are currently attending law school (ABA-accredited) or who will be attending law school in the near future are eligible to submit an application for the scholarship.
Deadline
The application, along with any additional information, must be submitted to us no later than February 22, 2018.
