Salem College Announces Upcoming Scholarships

The American College of History and Legal Studies (ACHLS) in Salem has announced that it will grant fifteen merit-based scholarships to qualified students who start their junior year at ACHLS in 2013-14.

Michael Chesson, the Founding Professor and Dean of ACHLS, said that “Obtaining a scholarship for the junior year will tremendously assist students pursuing their undergraduate education.  With the rising cost of tuition at other colleges, the ACHLS is doubling down on our commitment to educational reform and academic excellence. We are proud to offer a rigorous education, a convenient class schedule, and now, 15 merit based scholarships to students who may not otherwise have the opportunity to finish their degree and thereby, improve their lives."

The American College of History and Legal Studies was created by the Massachusetts School of Law.  An affordable “completion” college offering the junior and senior years of undergraduate study toward a bachelor’s degree in history and legal studies, ACHLS also offers an "Early Admission To Law School" program in conjunction with the Massachusetts School of Law.   Like its sister school MSL, all classes  at ACHLS are taught exclusively using the discussion (not lecture) method of teaching. 

Those students who choose to spend their senior year (of 2014-15) at ACHLS instead of going to the Massachusetts School of Law in 2014-15 (or who are ineligible to go to MSL then), will have to pay only half tuition (or $5,000) in their senior year.
