A scholarship selection committee will evaluate applications. Age, race, religion, gender, national origin, familial status, or membership in other protected classes will have no influence on the committee’s decision.

Due to legal reasons and the high volume of applications we receive, we are not able to answer any questions regarding your application status; nor will we be able to provide individual notification to non-winners. 

The winners of the Scholarship will be notified via email, and an announcement will be made via press release and via a blog post on the Summit Family Law website. 

The $2,500 award will be mailed directly to the student’s college or university. Instructions for mailing the check will be requested at the time of the award announcement.
