Taylor Legal Services Scholarship
Students in rural communities often have limited resources and opportunities when it comes to preparing for college.
From limited extracurriculars to few testing centers to a lack of access to internships and jobs, students may feel underserved and might face difficulties when applying for and beginning college. Moving to a new area, meeting new people, and navigating the academic and financial burdens of college can all feel overwhelming.
This scholarship aims to support students from rural high schools who are preparing to attend college and pursue law.
Any high school senior in North Carolina, who will attend a four-year college and pursue a law-related path may apply for this scholarship opportunity.
