UCLA Law Distinguished Scholars Award

Description

The UCLA Law Distinguished Scholars Award is open to incoming students at UCLA School of Law. This award is a binding merit-based full tuition scholarship for a small number of the most exceptionally qualified applicants who have determined that UCLA Law is their first choice. Students selected as Distinguished Scholars must immediately withdraw applications from all other law schools, refrain from initiating applications to other law schools, and submit their Statement of Intent to Register and seat deposit (which will be refunded upon enrollment in the fall) by the date stated in their award letter. Students applying to this program may not apply to early decision programs at any other law schools unless they are waitlisted or denied admission as a Distinguished Scholar. While waiting for a decision on the UCLA Law Distinguished Scholars Award, applicants may apply to other law schools regular decision with the commitment that if they are selected for the Distinguished Scholars Award, they will immediately withdraw applications from all other law schools and will enroll at UCLA Law, regardless of whether they were admitted to other law schools or have outstanding applications to other law schools.
