Award Description

Blake Cassels and Graydon Scholarship

Awarded to a second year Law student who demonstrated academic excellence in the first year of their law studies. To be eligible, a student will have obtained an academic standing in the top 10% of the law school class. Additional selection criteria may include financial need, membership in a historically disadvantaged group as outlined by the Ontario Human Rights Commission, involvement in the community, participation in extracurricular activities in the University or at the Law School, and whether a student has multiple responsibilities and limited support. The award will continue into third year if the recipient's second year average places him or her in the top 20% of their class for that year. Applications can be obtained from the Student Services Office of the Law School and must be completed by June 30 of the end of the student's first year. The Dean of the Faculty of Law will make the final selection. This scholarship was established by a generous gift from Blake Cassels & Graydon, LLP.
