Each year, the Monash Law Students' Society, in partnership with the Faculty of Law and the Monash Bookstore, provides textbook equity grants to undergraduate and postgraduate students who need financial assistance to purchase their law textbooks.
The LSS would like to acknowledge the generous contributions from the Faculty of Law and Monash Retail Bookstore and Merchandise Store. This joint grant scheme shows the commitment that we each have to providing financial support to students facing hardship, so that they can access resources necessary for their law degrees.
