Editor's notes
- July 15 is late, but scholarship money isn't. MC Law awards merit aid on GPA and LSAT and tells you to apply early for it. If you're from a feeder school with a 150 LSAT and a 3.5, March 1 is your real deadline, because that's the cutoff for the full-tuition Feeder School Scholarship.
- Letters are optional. Send one anyway if a professor or supervisor can speak to your work. The school says they can help, and with a one-line essay prompt and no interview, there's little else in the file besides numbers.
- The Hearin scholarships prefer students with a Mississippi connection, and the school pitches its Jackson location as the heart of the state's legal community. If you have ties to the state or plan to practice there, put that in the statement plainly.
