Graton Scholarship

Description

The Graton Scholarship is open to incoming students at UCLA School of Law who have demonstrated an interest in and an aptitude for Native American law, as well as a record demonstrating a commitment to tribal communities, public service, and leadership in Indigenous rights. Past Graton Scholars have expressed their interest in advancing Indigenous rights through environmental law, human rights law, and intellectual property law, among many other areas. In past cohorts, both Native and non-Native students have been awarded the Graton Scholarship. Tribal members are strongly encouraged to apply. To be considered for this award, you must express your interest in the scholarship by including a maximum 1000-word addendum with their application for admission, setting forth your record of personal or academic commitment to advocating on behalf of Native Nations, as well as further explicating your career aspirations in the field.
