WHAT IS THE HARTER SECREST & EMERY LLP DIVERSITY SCHOLARSHIP?

The Harter Secrest & Emery LLP Diversity Scholarship was established in 2005. The firm awards one 1L law
student with (1) a $7500 scholarship to be applied to the student’s second year tuition and (2) a paid 10-week
summer associate position between the student’s rst and second year of law school.

WHO IS ELIGIBLE FOR THE DIVERSITY SCHOLARSHIP?

To be eligible for the Diversity Scholarship, the applicant must be a full-time currently enrolled 1L law student
who is in good standing at an accredited law school. First year students who are members of populations
historically underrepresented in the legal profession are encouraged to apply.

following criteria: (1) the individual must possess an academic record, interest and capacity that evidence
great promise for a successful career during the remainder of law school and in the legal profession; and (2)
