Following the deadline on April 30, 2023, Miller, Dawson, Sigal, & Ward will form a scholarship selection committee for the sole purpose of evaluating applications and selecting two winners. Decisions made and announced by the scholarship selection committee are final unless issues arise regarding plagiarism or factual inaccuracies in winners’ applications.

Notification of Winners

Miller, Dawson, Sigal, & Ward will select winners and inform those two winners via email by June 11, 2023. Winners agree to have their essays and information about their scholarship published in press releases, blog posts, and other forms of media at the discretion of Miller, Dawson, Sigal, & Ward.

The law firm is not required to contact all applicants. Instead, the announcement of the two winners will serve as notice to all other applicants.
