SCHOLARSHIP FUND

The National Judicial College provides scholarship assistance to meet the educational needs of our nation's judges. We work with chief justices, state court administrators, and state judicial educators to ensure that you and your colleagues have the very best opportunity to participate in an outstanding educational experience.
