1. The
Duquesne University School of Law is committed
to providing low cost continuing legal education
and to providing scholarship assistance for our
programs for attorneys demonstrating financial
hardship.
2. Our
policy is to provide at least twelve hours of
our annual offerings at a cost of approximately
1/3 the average per credit hour cost of MCLE
courses offered for Pennsylvania lawyers. We
also shall endeavor to provide several credits
annually at no charge. Those suffering
financial hardship will be directed first toward
these programs.
3. In
order to qualify for a discount or fee waiver
for any program, application should be made in
writing at least ten days prior to the subject
program to the Director of Continuing Legal Education,
Duquesne University School of Law, 312 Murray
Pavilion, 900 Locust Street, Pittsburgh, PA,
15282-0700. This application should provide
reasons for the scholarship based upon financial
hardship. The determination of the discount
or other scholarship is within the sole discretion
of the Director.
4. All
applications for scholarships will be kept confidential.
5. This
policy shall be effective from November 1, 2000.
