On-Campus Scholarship Application

To be considered for an On-Campus Scholarship, you must have completed your application and be accepted into Vermont Law and Graduate School's On-Campus programs.  All scholarships are awarded based on the program in which a student matriculates into. Should a student change program or status, scholarship awards will be reconsidered and rewarded (if applicable).

Scholarship recipients should be aware that the total annual scholarship and/or grant funding a student receives may not exceed a student’s annual standard tuition charges. This includes institutional, endowed and named scholarships, outside scholarships, and employer benefits. Students who receive scholarships and/or grants in addition to their merit-based award will have their institutional aid reduced if the total of their merit aid, scholarships, and/or grants exceeds their annual tuition charges.
