JUVENILE JUSTICE LAW SCHOOL SCHOLARSHIP [DEADLINE: JULY 31, 2016]
The Tiftickjian Law Firm, P.C. is committed to juvenile justice and wants to encourage young people to pursue a career in law and hopefully make a difference to someone in their careers. They have discovered that nothing matters more in the early life of a youth charged with a crime than lawyers, legal professionals, and judges who are committed to defending the rights of the youth. That is why their law firm is offering the Juvenile Justice Scholarship to encourage and assist students with attending law school with an interest in juvenile justice, as well as raise awareness of the issue of prison sentences and reduced rights for minors that place youths on an institutionalized path towards spending a large part of their life in the criminal justice system. We can do better.
Eligibility: Cumulative GPA of 3.50 or higher
Award: One applicant is awarded a $1,000 scholarship. The Tiftickjian Law Firm, P.C. scholarship award recipient will be notified of the selection on or before August 15th, 2016.

Submission components: (1) Application; (2) official copy of current academic transcript; and (3) an essay of not more than 3 pages describing how you think juvenile justice could be improved to rehabilitate juvenile’s and keep them out of the criminal justice system
