The Pegasus Scholarship Trust is an exchange program wherein young American Inn of Court members visit London for six weeks to learn about the English legal system and young English barristers visit the United States for six weeks to learn about the American legal system. While details of the program differ each year, the scholarship is designed to provide an intensive, six-week introduction to the English legal system.
Pegasus scholars spend the majority of their time in barristers’ chambers as well as observing trials or arguments in action. Members of the American Inns of Court admitted to the bar for at least two years but not more than seven years are encouraged to apply by January 16, 2024. Find out more at www.innsofcourt.org/PegasusScholarships.
