Scholarships Several honor scholarships are awarded each year to entering students who demonstrate extraordinary merit and who, based on background and experience, contribute to the diversity of the school. Funds are provided by the University and the scholarships are renewed annually if academic performance is satisfactory. This annual scholarship will be awarded to one or more students pursuing a law degree at UMKC with financial need who are currently employed with a law enforcement agency or who have just left the agency to pursue a law degree. If no current students meet these requirements, the scholarship may be awarded to other students with financial need. The Law Foundation Emergency Loan Fund A fund established from contributions given to the Law Foundation provides emergency short-term loans for law students.
