IU Maurer School of Law creates scholarship, mentoring programs with 4 colleges

So Parrish has a new plan: reaching students first – and early – by establishing scholarship and mentorship programs with specific schools.

“It’s a way to get the best and brightest,” he said.

In March, Maurer announced a partnership with Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology. Then, this month came partnerships with Wabash College, Knox College and Georgia Institute of Technology. And more are on the way, Parrish said.

The partnerships allows for at least two graduates from each school, who are accepted to Maurer, to receive a scholarship of 50 percent annual tuition along with a formal mentoring program. The scholarship is a savings of $45,000 to $75,000 over three years depending on a student’s residency. Participants from Rose-Hulman and Georgia Tech also  will have opportunities to work at Maurer’s Center for Intellectual Property Research.
