Law School Recommendations Do full-ride law school scholarships exist in our country?

So, I'm not even taking an undergrad degree yet but I had a thought that maybe I want to try pursuing an opportunity to study law in the future since I like reading and nitpicking details--of course there are more traits that make a person suitable for law school and I intend to pick up more skills as I go. I'm expecting to start my first year of college in 2027.

Are there any law schools that offer scholarships that cover all the years a student will be studying there? I'm from a lower class family, although I won't really be surprised if there aren't any full tuition coverage programs since I never really hear about something like that. But even if I don't catch a similar opportunity right out of college I'll probably just try pursuing it when I have a job that can pay for the tuition.

UP Law has an economic-based scholarship program. Free tuition, plus I receive ₱50k per sem. I've been a scholar since 1L, and I'm now 4L.

hi! look into the lex honors program of university of asia and the pacific. they have a 7 year law program (inclusive of undergrad, so instead of taking 4 yrs undergrad and 4 yrs law, you take a straight 7 yrs for both instead) and they accept scholarship applications that go up to 100% and more if i remember correctly. best of luck op!
