The
Robert A. Levy Fellowships in Law & Liberty were created
through the generosity of Dr. Robert A. Levy, a 1994 graduate
of the law school. Through this fellowship program, Dr.
Levy seeks to encourage young scholars to enter the academic
field of law and economics by sponsoring their pursuit of
a J.D. degree. Fellowship grants cover tuition and fees
and provide a substantial stipend for up to three years.
To be eligible for a Levy Fellowship, an applicant must
either (1) have earned a Ph.D. in economics, philosophy,
political science, finance, or a related field from an accredited
university or (2) have successfully completed all course
work in one of the above fields and have passed a general
exam for a Ph.D. in one of those fields from an accredited
university. Additionally, each fellow must pledge that it
is his or her intention to pursue a policy-related or an
academic career with an interdisciplinary teaching and research
specialization.
Two or more fellowships per year are granted to entering
law students. Fellowship grants cover tuition and fees at
the George Mason University School of Law and provide an
average annual stipend of as much as $22,000 for up to three
years.
Fellowships are granted for one academic year and are renewable,
on evidence of satisfactory progress, for up to two additional
years.
