The Women of Color Committee has established a Women of Color Committee Book Scholarship to support women of color law students whose involvement in the WBA or in their law school community has advanced the values and mission of the WOCC. The Scholarship will help to defray the cost of books and other law school course materials, which can cost hundreds of dollars and create a financial burden for some law students. The application period will open on Friday, April 4th and will close on Friday, May 9th. This year’s recipient will receive their scholarship at the WOCC’s Pioneering Women of Color event on June 4th, 2025.

In order to apply, you MUST be a member of the Women's Bar Association. If you are not already a member, then sign up for our FREE Law Student Membership HERE.
