¡ANDALE! SCHOLARSHIP

The Nevada Latino Bar Association (the “LBA”) is proud to present its fourth annual ¡Andale! Scholarship.  According to the Hispanic National Bar Association, while making up 18% of the U.S. population, Latinos/Latinx/Hispanics comprise only 5% of the nation’s lawyers.  As part of its mission, the LBA is dedicated to increasing representation and diversity in the legal profession. An important part of meeting this goal is increasing the number of Latino/Latinx/Hispanic students entering law school.

 

A significant barrier for many Latino/Latinx/Hispanic college students who wish to attend law school is the inability to afford a preparation course for the Law School Admissions Test (LSAT).  Additionally, the costs associated with registering for the exam itself can present a financial barrier to aspiring law students.  The LSAT is a required exam for the majority of law schools in the country, and serves as a factor for admissions and scholarships.  Taking an LSAT preparation course can help students achieve higher LSAT scores and ultimately increase their chances of being accepted to law school.  With this in mind, the LBA organized the ¡Andale! 5Krace, which raises funds for scholarships to pay for Latino/Latinx/Hispanic college students and recent graduates to offset the costs of taking the LSAT and an LSAT preparation course.

Scholarship includes registration for an LSAT prep course ($1,299 value), one LSAT examination application fee ($200 value), the Credential Assembly Service fee ($195 value), and one LSAT  law  school  report  ($45  value).    The  LBA  will  work  with  the  awardees  and  tender  payment  for  fees  directly  to  the LSAT prep course provider and reimburse students for the LSAT fees listed.
