We understand how difficult it may be for those with a criminal history to excel in their personal and professional lives. Through the Collins Rupp, P.C. Moving Forward Scholarship, our Utah law firm hopes to continue to instill hope and encouragement in individuals who are making an admirable effort to overcome criminal convictions that may hinder their success. This scholarship opportunity reflects the importance of each individual being treated with fairness, dignity, and respect.

Collins Rupp, P.C. is offering $1,000 each semester to an undergraduate student with a criminal history who proves they are making the effort to change their life for the better.

• Have a criminal history (Felony and Misdemeanor offenses, not Infractions or minor traffic violations)
• Be an undergraduate student attending an accredited college or university within the United States
• Be at least 17 years of age
• Hold U.S. citizenship or permanent residency

Note: Preference will be given to students who are engaged in educational pursuits that will contribute to social justice, reducing recidivism, and addressing areas of public and private interest that provide assistance to marginalized populations (i.e. education, health care, mental health, substance abuse, criminal justice, and social welfare).
