Chief Justice Fraser Scholarship

The Chief Justice Fraser Scholarship was established to honour Catherine Fraser, who retired as Alberta's Chief Justice in 2022. The scholarship recognizes and rewards academic achievement of an outstanding third-year student enrolled full-time in the faculty of law at the University of Alberta or the University of Calgary. This scholarship has been funded through the Alberta Heritage Scholarship Fund. Two scholarships of $12,500 each are available annually - one award at the University of Alberta and one award at the University of Calgary. Recipients are selected by their university based on academic standing in course work focused on the field of constitutionalism (including federalism and guaranteed rights, the delivery of fair and equal justice, the rule of law, or the protection of human rights), LSAT score, and demonstrated involvement in volunteer activity.
