The Acorn Lawyers Scholarships are awarded to students who have achieved outstanding performance academically (distinction average) throughout the year with specific relevance to subjects including, Contracts, Property and Trusts and Lawyers and Australian Society.

The scholarships are designed to inspire an ongoing commitment to learning in students before they enter the legal profession.

Acorn Lawyers work closely with the university and it is very exciting to see the quality of talent being produced by the University of Wollongong’s School of Law”.
