Triumph Law “Change Any Law” Scholarship

Thank you to all of the entrants of our 2023 “Change Any Law” Scholarship, which is now closed. The winner has been announced. We are not accepting any applications at this time. The deadline to apply for the new scholarship will be announced later this year. We encourage you to check back regularly for updates. 

Triumph Law’s “Change Any Law” Scholarship offers $2,500 in financial support to a student who submits a 500- to 1,000-word essay critically engaging with one of today’s local, federal, or state laws. The law firm encourages students to think about the legislation that impacts their day-to-day life and propose modifications to those laws.

Students should use their essays to describe why they’ve chosen a specific law to change, how they want that law to change, and what influence that change would have on the community it affects.

Triumph Law expects students interested in benefiting from its “Change Any Law” Scholarship to submit their essays by the deadline. The firm will then form a scholarship committee and assess submitted applications based on their legal knowledge and analytical depth. Triumph Law will not read scholarship applications submitted after this deadline.
