| GRANTS AND SCHOLARSHIPS |
| |
| TRUSTEE GRANTS |
| |
| The major source of Suffolk
Law School awards is the Trustee Grant. Trustee Grants are awarded
based on financial need and do not have to be repaid. Students who
file the required financial aid forms by the priority filing date
will be automatically considered for grant monies from this fund.
Applications received after the priority filing date will be considered
for a Trustee Grant on a funds available basis. Award amounts vary. Grants are renewed each year provided recipients reapply by the financial aid deadline and their financial need remains similar. |
| |
| SARGENT SCHOLARSHIPS |
| |
Sargent Scholarships are awarded to incoming students on the basis of significant financial need and strong academic credentials. Sargent Scholarships do not have to be repaid. Award amounts vary. The scholarships are renewed each year provided recipients maintain a minimum 3.0 yearly GPA and continue to demonstrate financial need. Awards are for Suffolk University Law School tuition only. Funds are posted to students’ tuition accounts after the fourth week of classes. |

| ACADEMIC LEADERSHIP
SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS |
| |
| Academic Leadership Scholarships are awarded to
the top five students in each section (for both Day and Evening
Divisions) as they are about to enter their second year. Students ranked first in their section receive a scholarship worth 50% of tuition; those ranked 2 through 5 receive a scholarship worth 25% of tuition. Academic Leadership Scholarships do not have to be repaid. Recipients must remain in the
top 20% of their class to renew the scholarship. Awards are made
in July. |

| TRUSTEE ACADEMIC
SCHOLARSHIPS |
| |
| Trustee Academic Scholarships
are merit-based funds awarded by the Admissions Committee at the
time an applicant is admitted to the Law School. Scholarships are
awarded to students based on outstanding academic achievement and do not have to be repaid. Award
amounts vary. Scholarships are renewed each year provided recipients maintain a minimum 3.0 yearly GPA. |
| |
| ENDOWED
SCHOLARSHIPS |
| |
| These "named" scholarships are funded by gifts
from donors and foundations, and are awarded to students who meet
the donors' designated criteria. Qualifications and award amounts
vary, but the determination of the award is generally based on financial
need and scholastic achievement. Endowed scholarships do not have to be repaid. |
| |
| Students
applying for financial aid are automatically considered for these
funds, based on the information provided in the student's application.
Scholarships that require a separate application will be posted,
when the application is available, to Campus Cruiser and in the
Current Outside Scholarship Opportunities section below. |
