CHINA SCHOLARSHIP FUND

The China Scholarship Fund provides access for the next generation of Chinese lawyers to study at Georgetown Law. This fund was set up to ensure that high merit students of all financial backgrounds from China have access to Georgetown Law and the transformative education that it offers. The Law Center is proud to be one of the top destinations for Chinese law students in the U.S. We welcomed over 165 students from China during the 2017-2018 academic year. Since 2014, the Law Center has provided a total of $917,061 in tuition assistance to Chinese students and the total amount distributed per student has increased every year. This fund allows us to ensure that finances are not a barrier for any student from China to attend Georgetown Law.
