Scholarship Description
Eligible applicants for the Paul D. Coverdell Fellowships are returned Peace Corps Volunteers through the Paul D. Coverdell Fellows program applying to Loyola University Chicago’s Master of Laws (LLM) or Master of Jurisprudence (MJ) in Rule of Law for Development. The scholarship will allow for a 50% tuition award, and the Fellows will undertake an internship at a Loyola partner organization at the end of the program.
In order to be considered for the Coverdell Fellowship, applicants will need to submit their official Peace Corps Description of Service along with their application for admission.
