Description

At Mattis Law, we've dedicated our practice to Family Law, and we do everything we can to ensure that children and their families will have a safe and happy future. In this spirit, we're offering a scholarship to benefit a San Diego County high school senior or graduate who wishes to improve their future by pursuing higher education. This scholarship is open to California high school graduates pursuing a four-year college degree and current college students who graduated from a California high school and are pursuing a four-year degree or are currently enrolled in a two-year college and planning to transfer to a four-year college degree program upon completion. Students who hold Permanent Residency status may also apply. DACA recipients are welcome to apply. Finalists must provide their school transcripts, current proof of enrollment, and photo ID. Finalists will be required to submit upon request an enrollment verification letter, letter of acceptance from a college, or course registration for the coming semester. We will require a copy of your U.S. driver's license, U.S. state ID card, DACA ID, and/or passport. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
