Campus-Based Scholarships and Fellowships for Health Law Students

Through the generosity of donors and Loyola University Chicago, several campus-based scholarships and fellowships may be available to students studying health law. They are subject to continued funding each year.

Health Law Fellowship for LL.M. Students

Each year the Beazley Institute may award a fellowship to a full-time incoming LL.M. student.  The LLM Fellow may serve as an instructor and/or tutor to health care professionals enrolled in the Master of Jurisprudence in Health Law program; conduct research for faculty members; author scholarly articles; serve as an editor of the Institute's online health law newsletter, and represent the Institute at professional meetings and associations.  Compensation includes a full-tuition scholarship and a $5000 stipend. 

To apply, please send a writing sample, a resume, and cover letter no later than May 1 of each year to: 

LLM Fellowship Committee

Fellowship applicants must apply and be accepted into the LLM in Health Law degree program at Loyola before his/her fellowship application will be reviewed.

A fellow's performance will be evaluated each semester and continuation of the award will be contingent upon maintenance of a 3.0 grade point average. 

Health Law Fellowships for J.D. Students

The health law fellowship program is near and dear to the hearts of our faculty.  Each year we select up to eight individuals who we believe demonstrate the potential to be both leaders within the School as well as outstanding health lawyers in their careers.  Fellows are provided with a one-time tuition remittance of $2500 during their first year of study.  Fellows also are enrolled in the specialized health law legal writing section in their first year of law school, and invited to occasional meetings with the faculty.  During the second and third year of law school, fellows are asked to serve as ambassadors for the health law program, attending various Institute conferences, as well as applying to serve on the Annals of Health Law, among other activities.  Most fellows find that the contacts that they make with faculty and practitioners during their time at Loyola are an invaluable benefit to starting their legal careers.  Click here to download an application
