DLA Piper invites applications for the 2025 DLA Piper Global Scholarship, tailored for undergraduate law students in the penultimate year of their degree and postgraduate law students pursuing a two-year qualification in a related field. To qualify, students must be studying in their home country, which must be one of the countries covered by the programme. This prestigious fully funded law school scholarship is designed to support high-achieving law students who lack access to vital resources, such as role models, internships, mentorship, and tuition support.
The scholarship program offers a unique combination of mentorship opportunities for aspiring lawyers, professional guidance, and financial support. Throughout the programme, Fellows will benefit from internships and networking opportunities for law students, building essential skills, confidence, and connections that ensure their success at university and beyond. The program provides a launchpad for students transitioning into advanced education, legal training, or employment.
