The Justinian Society of Lawyers
Scholarship Program for 2008-2009

Scholarship Application

The Justinian Society of Lawyers provides annual scholarships to needy Italian-American law students attending area law schools. Last year, we afforded 20 scholarships totaling in excess of $37,000 (including the law schools matching funds).

The criteria for scholarship are:

1) Italian ancestry
2) Scholarship
3) Need.

We are primarily concerned with providing awards to qualified applicants demonstrating need, we require that applicants submit evidence of Italian ancestry and we require some assurance that the individuals who are awarded scholarships will complete their legal studies.

Certified transcripts of law school enrollment and grades, together with a black and white photo of the applicant must accompany the written application. All applicants are additionally required to indicate whether or not they previously have been awarded a scholarship by the Justinian Society of Lawyers.

All requests for scholarship must be in writing and must be received on or before September 12, 2008.

Application and required attachments are to be submitted to:
