University of Iowa College of Law Scholarships
A separate application is not required for these scholarships and fellowships. Recipients are notified by letter. All students admitted to the College of Law who apply for financial aid through the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) process, including submitting the appropriate supporting documents, are automatically considered for the following aid:

• Need-Based Scholarships—Awards may range from $500 to full resident tuition.
  
• Merit Scholarships and Fellowships—These awards are based on academic achievement. Potential aid renewal for the second and third year for some merit scholarships and fellowships requires maintenance of class rank in the top 37.5%. Awards may range from $500 to full resident tuition with a research-assistantship component in upper-level years.
  
• UI Law Foundation Scholarships—The University of Iowa Law Foundation Scholarships include scholarships that are merit-based, need-based and a combination of need- and merit-based. These scholarships are awarded to a limited number of students who meet the criteria established by the scholarship donors, as funds are available. Awards may range from $200 to full resident tuition.
  
• Law Opportunity Fellowships—The College of Law is committed to affording opportunity for a legal career to persons historically underrepresented in the legal profession. The Law Opportunity Fellowship Program (LOF) was established by the University to provide access to law school for students from groups and backgrounds historically under-represented within the academic community. Among the criteria considered in awarding the fellowships are: educationally and/or socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds, existing educational debt load, leadership potential, academic merit, and importance of the fellowship award to a student's financial ability to attend law school. Awards may range from $3,000 to full nonresident tuition for three years and the opportunity to hold a research-assistant position for the second and third years.
