The Foundation of the Federal Bar Association is pleased to accept applications for the Foundation’s Public Service Scholarship. The scholarship provides $5,000 as assistance to a graduating high school senior planning to attend a four-year college or university. At least one of the parents (or guardians) of the student must be a current federal government attorney or federal judge and a member of the Federal Bar Association. If you have children that meet these criteria, we eagerly encourage them to apply for this scholarship.
The scholarship is funded by the Earl W. Kintner Memorial Fund. Earl W. Kintner was a distinguished member of the Federal Bar Association and two-time national president. His professional and civic leadership and dedication serve as a model to any aspiring academic.
A scholarship application form is available for download. An applicant must complete the application and the required essay as well as enclose official copies of his or her most recent transcripts and a letter of acceptance from the college or university that he or she is planning to attend. Completed applications must be returned to the Foundation postmarked by March 15, 2012.
