Jay G. Cohen Memorial Scholarship
Deadline: Friday, March 31, 2023
The Jay G. Cohen Memorial Student Opportunities Endowed Scholarship Fund is a memorial scholarship that honors the memory of Jay G. Cohen, a prominent Baltimore attorney and proud Terp husband and father. This fund was established to reduce the barriers to law school admission for UMD undergraduate students who have both financial need and demonstrated success at the University of Maryland, and who have a strong interest in pursuing a career as an attorney. In particular, this fund will provide students with resources to pay for part (or all) of an LSAT preparation course, and/or for additional expenses incidental to the law school admissions process (e.g. application fees, transportation for visits, etc.).
All full-time UMD undergraduate students are eligible to apply, although preference is given to students in their junior year. For complete award criteria, instructions, and online application, please visit go.umd.edu/BSOSscholarships.
Applications must be submitted by 5:00 pm Friday, March 31, 2023.
