School of Law

As the state’s only law school, opportunities abound; however, we need funding to attract and retain students.

Opportunities for Impact

At the UND School of Law, we educate law students for professional service in North Dakota and beyond while promoting improvements in the law, the legal profession and the administration of justice. You can help us raise the bar.

Student Scholarships

In the 2021-22 academic year, $257,995 was awarded to 77 students at UND Law. By creating more scholarships, our future leaders have more opportunity to advance their education and careers. Our fundraising goals are:

• Impact Scholarships ($50,000+)
• Endowed Scholarships ($25,000 - $249,999)
• Leadership Scholarships ($250,000+)

Faculty Excellence

Supporting our faculty is a necessity. One professor can touch the lives of many through the opportunities they create. 

Our college's 21 faculty members include six partially funded endowed positions made possible by private gifts from alumni and friends. Our fundraising goals for faculty are:

• Endowed Fellowships ($500,000)
• Endowed Professorships ($1 million)
• Endowed Chairs ($2.5 million)

Programs

Support our areas of greatest need, and make an immediate impact by supporting the School of Law Annual Excellence Fund. We have a goal of raising more than $100,000 to support the fund and our school's priorities.
