NEW SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITY for Rising 2Ls: Schmid Honor Scholar Program-DEADLINE: July 7, 2014

The Schmid Honor Scholar Program was established by the Marvin and Virginia Schmid Foundation. Marvin Schmid was a 1935 graduate of the College of Law.

Brian Schmid Reading Room, and scholarships for the Nebraska Law Review Editor-in-Chief and the Nebraska Moot Court Board Chair.

Second year students are eligible to apply to be a Schmid Honor Scholar even if you are already receiving a scholarship. Criteria to be considered in awarding the Schmid Honor Scholarships include academic excellence and involvement in extra- curricular activities.

To apply for the Schmid Honor Scholar Program, submit a letter of application addressed to the Law College Scholarship Committee and present reasons why you should be selected to be a Schmid Honor Scholar. Application letters should be sent (in hard copy or electronic form) to Assistant Dean Pearce by July 7, 2014.
