CURRENT JD STUDENTS
Financial Aid awards for returning students are compiled in early April. Those individuals who have received a Law Alumni Grant must complete a FAFSA and results must be received by April 1. Failure to adhere to this deadline will result in the loss of the grant.
Individuals who received an Honors-at-Entrance Scholarship will have that scholarship renewed as "estimated" until Spring semester grades are posted. A cumulative GPA of 3.00 or above is required for the renewal of the Honors-at-Entrance Scholarship.
Other scholarships received, that have a renewal clause, have individual requirements. Please refer to the award letter received to review those requirements.
