California Lawyers Foundation (CLF) is launching three unique scholarship opportunities for students to encourage academic ambition in the legal profession.

The Future Jurist Scholarship gives $5,000 to support incoming undergraduate students who have a strong interest in pursuing a legal education and attending law school. This scholarship nurtures early academic ambition and a passion for justice, leadership, and civic engagement.

The California Legal Pathways Collaborative (CLPC) scholarship will award $1500 to a high school senior enrolled in one of CLPC’s 24 Law Academies through the state.
