Scholarship Opportunities and Applications

Thank You Letters

There's no question that the John Marshall alumni and friends who make scholarships available through their generous contributions deserve our thanks. Therefore, we politely require all scholarship recipients to submit a letter of thanks to The John Marshall Law School Foundation before their scholarship funds are released. No envelope or stamp is required; the Foundation will mail the letter for you. We ask that you not send your letter directly to the donor.

Thank You Letter Submission

Your scholarship donor's name will be included with your award notification, and can also be acquired by contacting Maridonna Schaal at The John Marshall Law School Foundation. A hard copy of your letter should be delivered to the Foundation on the 11th floor of the CBA building.

Thank You Letter Hints

It's important that you convey the same spirit of personal excellence in your donor letter that you did to earn your scholarship. As you write your letter, be mindful of grammatical and spelling errors, and be sure to use spell check and grammar check when you finish. The Foundation staff will review your letter before it's mailed, and if your letter contains errors, it will need to be corrected and reprinted for your signature before mailing.

Thank You Letter Content

Please include your return address, phone number, and email address at the top of the letter, so the donor can continue the correspondence if he or she chooses. As you write, consider the following areas of interest:
