National LGBTQ+ Bar Law School Scholarship

Students accepted or enrolled at least half-time at an ABA-accredited U.S. law school may apply. Three awards go to one incoming 1L, one rising 2L, and one rising 3L or 4L (evening/part-time) student who demonstrate commitment to LGBTQ+ equality through law.

Each scholarship is $2,500 on an unrestricted basis for tuition, housing, books, bar prep, or other law school expenses.

Applications are due April 1 each year by midnight Eastern Time. The 2026 cycle was closed when checked in July 2026.

The National LGBTQ+ Bar Association runs this annual program for LGBTQ+ law students.
