Scholarships

The Duncan School of Law has a limited number of scholarships that are awarded to admitted candidates during the admissions process. Scholarships may be based on a number of factors: academic credentials (LSAT and undergraduate GPA), records of leadership and community service, or other factors as established by the Duncan School of Law.

Candidates for admission who meet the deadline for scholarship application will automatically be considered for all scholarship opportunities. No separate scholarship application is required.

There are other outside scholarships available for both graduate and law studies by sources outside of Duncan School of  Law.  Since the price of a graduate law degree can be a costly investment, LMU-DSOL highly recommends you try to take advantage of applying for any of these opportunities to assist in paying portion of your tuition an expenses. When applying for scholarships, be sure that you read the requirements for application carefully and follow all instructions before applying. This will increase your chances.
