Class Partners directly support students at Georgetown Law by providing essential current-use scholarship assistance to a particular Class.  With a three-year commitment of $5,000 per year, Class Partners ensure that talented students with financial constraints have the resources they need from their first days as 1Ls through graduation at the end of their legal studies. 

We invite you to consider partnering with the Class of 2011 as you invest, with the Law Center, in educating the next generation of Georgetown lawyers.

Why are Class Partners important?

Each fall, some of the country's brightest students begin their legal studies at Georgetown University Law Center.  They are drawn to Georgetown Law because of its academic reputation, outstanding faculty and commitment to service.

For many students, the decision to attend Georgetown is heavily influenced by the Law Center's ability to provide a competitive financial aid package.  It is crucial that additional current-use resources are found to meet the growing demand for financial aid as Georgetown remains committed to its "need- blind" admissions policy.  Class Partners help the Law Center achieve this goal by providing current-use scholarship assistance to an incoming class of Georgetown students and supporting those students through their years at Georgetown Law.

 

What are the benefits of becoming a Class Partner?

The Class Partners Program enables you to make a direct and substantial impact in the lives of today's Georgetown Law students.  In appreciation and recognition of your support for the Class Partners Program, you will receive:
