Soledad '92 and Robert Hurst Horizon Scholarship

The Soledad '92 and Robert Hurst Horizon Scholarship is a full-ride scholarship for students enrolled in the Juris Doctor (J.D.) program at Yale Law School. It aims to support prospective lawyers from families with very limited financial means by removing economic barriers to attending Yale Law School. The scholarship covers essential financial needs for the duration of the three-year J.D. program and does not require repayment.

Full tuition coverage, payment of required administrative fees, and university health insurance for the duration of the J.D. program; no loan repayment required.

Applicants must be admitted and enrolled in the J.D. program at Yale Law School and demonstrate a family income at or below 200% of the U.S. federal poverty level with total family assets under USD 150,000; applicants must provide parents' tax and financial documentation as requested.

Apply and be admitted to Yale Law School's J.D. program; submit Yale Law School's official financial aid application with parental federal tax returns, bank statements, and asset documentation; eligible applicants are awarded automatically after financial verification by the university's financial office.
