The Michael S. Lamonsoff Scholarship has been created to provide you – the aspiring recipient of a bachelor’s or master’s degree – with the opportunity to earn a scholarship to help with your college’s expenses. Mr. Lamonsoff knows well that attending college is stressful and costly, and it is much easier to graduate when the financing of your education is more certain. Therefore, he offers this $1,000 scholarship to help with your undergraduate or graduate school expenses starting in 2017 and each year after that.
The Michael S. Lamonsoff Scholarship is available to high school students who are about to begin their college experience, as well as undergraduate and graduate students. We also encourage ambitious students who are transferring, and minorities to apply as well.
In the words of scholarship founder Michael S. Lamonsoff, “My law firm takes great pride in supporting the college education of high-achieving college students who are having difficulty affording to pay for college. It is my great hope that this annual scholarship helps the future leaders and workers of America to obtain their education.”
