Huskies United for College of Law

Scholarship support for students remains the law school’s top fundraising priority. We encourage you to support one of the following areas that we consider important sources of funds.  Your gift will provide much needed financial assistance to the next generation of lawyers!

  • Dean’s Strategic Priorities Fund – This is the College of Law’s unrestricted fund, allowing the school maximum flexibility in addressing its most pressing needs. A portion of the fund provides Bar Prep Scholarships for graduates studying for the bar examination.
  • College of Law Student Emergency Fund – These funds are to provide assistance to currently enrolled NIU College of Law students who need short-term support that will help them continue their education.
  • Embracing Diversity Scholarship Fund – One of our bedrock values is to create an inclusive and diverse community. The Embracing Diversity scholarship provides financial support for rising second- and third-year students who create, manage, and oversee a series of talks and community conversations addressing issues of socio-economic diversity.

Join the NIU Law family and support our students today. Go Huskies!
