AALAM/Dow Fund Scholarship

Description

The AALAM/Dow Fund Scholarship is awarded each academic year to an Asian American law student who demonstrates leadership potential, a commitment to making a contribution to the Asian American community, and an interest in pursuing public interest positions and other indicators of excellence, whether personal, professional or academic. Priority consideration will be given to law students who have secured a public interest position for the summer, but it is not necessary to have a position lined up in advance of submitting an application. Applicants must be enrolled at a law school in Massachusetts or another New England state, graduating in 2026 or 2027. They must be current and active members of AALAM. Applicants must submit a full law school transcript. 2Ls should include 2L grades as well as 1L grades. If grades are not yet available by the submission date, students may choose to supplement their application and submit their transcript when available. Applicants must also provide their basic biographical information such as name, phone number, address, law school and graduation year. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
