TIP Pre-Law -- TN Residents - Deadline: March 15, 2021

To help achieve diversity in the classroom, during the summer the University of Memphis School of Law operates the Tennessee Institute for Pre-Law (TIP) program. The TIP program is for Tennessee residents (and Border County residents at the University of Memphis School of Law) who are not admitted through the regular admissions process, but who show potential for the study of law and bring diversity to the class. TIP seeks to matriculate students from diverse backgrounds and circumstances who are capable of successfully participating in law school curricular and co-curricular programs.
 
To apply for TIP, you must go through our regular application process through the LSAC and our priority deadline is March, 15, 2022.  Additionally, you must complete the TIP portion of the application to be considered.  More information on TIP can be found here.


How do I apply to TIP? The TIP application is incorporated into the application for admission. To be considered for TIP applicants must answer the optional application questions and submit a supplemental statement explaining why you believe you are qualified for the program and how you will bring diversity to the law school entering class. The application deadline is March 15. There is no separate application fee for TIP.

Please save the date!  Each year the University of Memphis School of Law hosts an exciting program that celebrates the value of diversity in the legal profession, while showcasing our law school and many pipelining opportunities at Memphis Law.  

Our goal for Diversity Day this year is simple—provide information about law school, how to prepare for law school, and  elevate diversity in the legal profession by bringing together the Law School, prospective students, and Memphis legal community. Prospective students will also have the opportunity to see a mock trial demonstration and meet current Memphis Law students and faculty.  We would like to invite you and/or your students to share in this valuable experience!

Students who do not meet this requirement may still be considered for participation through other sources of funding available at the REU Sites.
Learn more about the REU program at the NSF website.

RESEARCH EXPERIENCE FOR UNDERGRADUATES (REU)


NNCI Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Program in Nanotechnology

Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) programs are an excellent way for undergraduates to become acquainted with scientific research and graduate student life. REU programs typically consist of an intensive 10 week summer research experience at a university different than your own. Most research centers sponsor REU-like programs as part of their education and outreach efforts.
The NNCI does not offer a network-wide REU program, but many of the NNCI sites conduct their own separate programs and the details for these are listed below. You must apply to each program separately.

The NNCI REU program will have a networked NNCI REU Convocation. The Convocation is an end of program technical conference (2-3 days) held at one of the sites. CNF will host in August 2019. Participants from NNCI REU site programs will travel to Cornell University to present their results in poster and oral formats and network with their peers. This is a wonderful culmination of the research experience. Most NNCI sites listed below will participate in the Convocation.

In turn, these scholars serve as positive role models and change the trajectories for their siblings, friends and communities.

Our Deepest Fear













Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are born to manifest the Glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone, and as we let our light shine, we consciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

(The quote was written by: Marianne Williamson)
