The National Judicial College provides scholarships to enable judges and other court service professionals to attend judicial education courses at NJC. We announce the availability of scholarships to the chief justice of every state, to the state court administrators, to the state judicial educators, and directly to the judges. The judges apply using a scholarship application form and we review their application based upon need, geographic diversity, educational record and eligibility for the course. We require scholarship recipients to attend all sessions and to provide an evaluation.
