Priorities for the Campaign

Scholarships and Loan Forgiveness

Students are at the heart of UVA Law, and the reason scholarships and loan forgiveness are a top priority. Financial aid is key to recruiting diverse and talented students, removing barriers to entering the legal profession, and enabling careers in public service.

Professorships

Every law school’s core strength is its faculty. That is especially true here at UVA Law, where faculty value training the next generation of lawyers as much as developing innovative ideas and improving the law. Professorships enable the Law School to attract, support, and retain the world-class scholars and teachers who are so essential to the school’s mission and reputation.

Programs and Curricular Initiatives

As the practice of law responds to developments in technology, economics, and politics, the Law School must educate students with both a breadth of knowledge and specialization of expertise to prepare them for their careers.

Unrestricted Giving

Powering the school’s ability to provide an unparalleled educational experience, unrestricted giving allows for deploying funds where they are needed most, whether it’s to supplement scholarships and professorships in support of students and faculty, to enhance the student body with pipeline programs and the curriculum with new components, or to fund summer and postgraduate public service fellowships.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Because diversity, equity, and inclusion are fundamental to legal education, as well as to the practice of law, the Law School and the Law School Foundation are committed to raising funds dedicated to supporting these values. It is critically important that the lawyers, leaders, and public servants we train both embrace and reflect the diversity of our nation and the globe.
