Scholarships and Financial Aid
The University of Richmond is proud of the generous support it receives from its donors in support of its financial aid program. The University of Richmond School of Law offers merit- and need-based financial assistance to its students. The law school admissions office administers the merit-based scholarship program, while the University's financial aid office administers the need-based program.
The law school considers all applicants for merit scholarships. Awards are based on undergraduate academic achievement and aptitude for the study of law. A separate application form is not required. Recipients will be contacted in March. Scholarships are awarded when a student enters the first year of law school and are renewed yearly based on satisfactory academic progress.
*New* Law Preview Scholarships sponsored by Troutman Sanders
Top law firms understand that their lawyers must be diverse in order to best serve their clients. That is why many top 100 law firms and companies have invested heavily to improve diversity among practicing attorneys and the legal community in general. These law firms understand that improving diversity in the legal profession requires more than just hiring and promoting diverse attorneys within their firms. It also requires a sustained commitment to increase the pipeline of diverse students who earn strong grades in law school and are, therefore, positioned to compete for the most sought-after jobs and become the profession's next generation of leaders and decision-makers.
Law Preview (the nation's largest law school prep course) has teamed up with Troutman Sanders (one of the world's most prominent law firms) to provide Law Preview Scholarships to select members of our entering class. Troutman Sanders has generously agreed to help entering students prepare for the unique challenges they will face during their 1L year at Richmond Law by paying the cost of tuition for a law school prep course. Visit Law Preview's scholarship page to see if you meet the scholarship criteria.
