Scholarships for Graduates of Five Leading Women’s Colleges at Indiana University’s Mauer School of Law

The Mauer School of Law at Indiana University in Bloomington has established a scholarship and mentoring program for graduates of five of the nation’s leading women’s colleges. The program will offer scholarships to at least two women from each college who have been admitted to the law school. The scholarships will cover approximately half of the students’ tuition costs. Students in the program will also have access to a formal mentoring program.

The women’s colleges participating in the new program are Bryn Mawr College, Mills College, Mount Holyoke College, Smith College, and Wellesley College.

“The role of women in the legal profession is more important than ever, and our school has made a major commitment to maintaining a diverse enrollment, by recruiting some of the most talented young women in the nation, who go on to be leaders in their fields,” said Austen L. Parrish, dean of the law school and James H. Rudy Professor of Law. “We are privileged to join forces with some of the nation’s most distinguished women’s colleges with the hope that their alumnae will become part of our community.”
