Annual Dyslexia Scholarship Programme
The Law Offices of Judd S. Nemiro, PLLC takes pleasure in announcing its annual dyslexia scholarship program. The program consists of two awards annually, each for $1,000, for tuition assistance at an educational institution. We offer these scholarships in order to help those with Dyslexia in continuing their education.
Dyslexia is a learning disability. It can hinder writing, reading, spelling, and in some cases speaking. It is estimated that it affects approximately 17% of the population. Those with Dyslexia often have difficulty in the classroom, and the scholarships are designed to encourage them to pursue their educational goals.
Description of the Dyslexia Scholarships
Two scholarships are being offered annually*, and each is in the sum of $1,000. Each scholarship will take the form of a tuition payment for enrollment at a university, college, community college, trade school, or secondary school. You need not be currently enrolled at an educational institution at the time you submit your application. The winners, within a year from the award date, will provide us with a tuition invoice from the school they will be attending. A $1,000 check will then be forwarded to the school.
Eligibility
You must be diagnosed with Dyslexia. We may ask for proof of the diagnosis.

The application, including upload(s), must be submitted no later than November 4, 2016.

- A short statement (approximately 100 words) describing your educational goals.
- An optional essay (650 to 1,000 words), describing how Dyslexia has affected your formal education.
