Priorities at the School of Law

Whether you choose to make a designated gift or an unrestricted one, it is guaranteed that your funds will help in the areas that the School of Law needs most.

Our priorities are as follows:

Annual Fund

The Annual Fund is the law school’s discretionary spending account. All Annual Fund spending is directed toward scholarship support.

Fund for the Public Interest

Your support will provide debt relief to graduates who are working in the public sector.

Law Library

The law library needs your support to continue to serve as a great resource for students and faculty. Your gift will help keep its shelves stocked with the latest and most important books and periodicals and its technology constantly up-to-date.

Co-op Stipends

Your support provides stipends to students who undertake un-paid or under-paid co-ops in various public interest fields.  

Scholarship Assistance

Your gift funds scholarships for students who need or deserve it most.

Cooperative Income Sharing Program (CISP)

This student-run and student-funded program makes grants to students choosing unpaid or underpaid public interest co-ops. CISP raises money by selling NUSL clothing and merchandise, holding used book sales and relying on the generosity of its own student members.
