Diversity Legal Scholars

Texas Appleseed, Kaplan Test Prep and Admissions©, and Texas attorneys believe that law school should be accessible to all qualified students. This scholarship helps low-income people of color in Texas expand their law school options by covering the full cost of a Kaplan (LSAT) preparation course.
