The Multnomah Bar Association’s Equity, Diversity & Inclusion Committee seeks to foster and expand diversity in the Multnomah County legal community. To achieve this goal, the committee awards scholarships for LSAT preparation courses to law school applicants whose future involvement in the law will enhance the diversity of our bench and bar.
The application is open to any law school applicant now attending college in the state of Oregon or Vancouver, Washington, or who has other substantial ties to the state of Oregon.
Prep courses for the June 11, 2018 LSAT will begin in mid-April and involve 6 – 8 weeks of classes. With this timeframe in mind, the Diversity and Inclusion Committee asks that all applications be submitted by Friday, March 2, 2018. Applicants should email their completed applications to mbalsat@mbabar.org or send them by regular mail to:
MBA Equity, Diversity & Inclusion Committee/LSAT Scholarship
620 SW Fifth Ave., Suite 1220
Portland, OR 97204
The committee hopes to announce the names of all scholarship recipients by Friday, March 30, 2018.
