The 2021-2022 Scholarship Application for the Don H. Liu Scholars Program (“Program”) is now open. The Program was founded in 2014 by two past presidents of the Asian American Bar Association of New York. The Program seeks to identify and cultivate future Asian American leaders in the legal community to address the single most important reality facing Asian American professionals today — the barrier to advancement.
This year, the Selection Committee will select up to 3 scholars. Each scholar will be awarded $15,000 each and have access to prominent mentors, including Don H. Liu, Executive Vice President, Chief Legal and Risk Officer of Target Corporation. The Program will also provide assistance in career development, including identifying potential internships. Details and more information about the Program can be found on our website here: http://www.donhliuscholars.org. Recipients must be enrolled full-time as a 1L.
The deadline to apply for the scholarship is November 15, 2021. Any questions regarding eligibility criteria or the application process can be sent via e-mail to applications.donhliuscholars@gmail.com.
Interested students are also encouraged to join us for a free webinar to learn more about the Program on Thursday, July 29th or Thursday, August 12th, 2021 from 12:30 – 1:30 pm ET. Please RSVP for one or both sessions here.
