Ann Forman Scholarship


The Ann Forman Scholarship was created in 2012 to honor attorney Ann Dinsmore Forman.  Ann died on January 28, 2010 after a long and brave battle against breast cancer.  She was a highly recognized Assistant District Attorney for Travis County, devoting her career to the protection of abused and neglected children.

The Ann Forman Scholarship is awarded annually to a 2nd or 3rd-year law student attending the UT School of Law.  The scholarship committee considers each candidate’s interest and aptitude in child welfare law, related community service, and financial need.

Applications for the scholarship are available each spring, with interviews and presentation of awards occurring soon thereafter.
