Grants and Writing Resources for Regent University
Three second-year Regent Law students went undefeated in February 2026 to win the 55th Annual William B. Spong Jr. Moot Court Tournament, hosted by William & Mary Law School. Over successive elimination rounds they beat UC Davis, Duquesne, Florida State, Fordham and Cleveland State.
A Conference for Undergraduates
The College of Arts & Sciences hosts the Annual Undergraduate Research Conference, open to sophomores, juniors and seniors in good standing. A class paper or essay qualifies as readily as independent research. Applicants send a 150 to 250 word abstract and choose a 15-minute talk with questions or a 36 by 48 inch poster, and each presenter is assigned a faculty mentor. Abstracts are printed in the program. The eighth conference took place on April 10, 2026.
Fiction, poetry and creative nonfiction go to Eden's Lantern, the college's literary journal. Submissions are open to all creative writers, undergraduates included, and the journal seeks work grounded in Christian faith. Editors read every piece blind, and prose runs to 3,000 words at most.
Law Review and Leadership Proceedings
Students of the School of Law produce and edit the Regent University Law Review, which comes out each spring and fall. Editors and staff are chosen for academic achievement and writing ability. Each issue carries articles by practitioners, professors and judges alongside student notes and comments selected for publication.
In the School of Business & Leadership, the Research Roundtables are held every year, and the 2026 event runs as a live virtual event in eight tracks, from servant leadership to artificial intelligence. Presenters submit a 250-word proposal in APA, MLA or Chicago style to a track chair. Presenters are chosen through peer review, and chairs then pick papers for the Regent Research Roundtables proceedings after a further editorial review.
Graduate Scholarships and Assistantships
Regent's donor-funded scholarships go to graduate, professional and doctoral students. Two of them, the Azusa Street Scholarship and the Fred W. Beazley Scholarship, cover full tuition and add a book stipend of up to $300 per term. Azusa Street is for students called to serve the African-American community in the United States. Beazley weighs academic merit and residency, with Tidewater applicants considered first. The William J. Dooner Scholarship pays half of tuition and weighs involvement in the Roman Catholic Church along with academic performance. Recipients reapply every year.
The School of Psychology & Counseling appoints Psy.D. and Ph.D. in Counselor Education & Supervision students in their second year or later as teaching assistants, at up to $7,500 in scholarship and stipend for one year. Psy.D. students can also apply for the First Generation Merit Scholarship or the Christian Leadership Scholarship, each worth up to $20,000 a year.
Writing Tutors and Thesis Guidelines
Regent's writing tutors work in Academic Coaching, part of the Center for Student Happiness, which serves degree-seeking students at every level. Appointments are free, booked through Handshake and last up to 40 minutes. Walk-in hours, on campus and online, give up to 20 minutes with a coach, and the campus office is room 218 of the library. Coaches teach and explain; they will not edit or proofread a student's paper.
The library's Dissertations & Theses guide collects program templates and handbooks, including the School of Education and School of Psychology & Counseling dissertation templates. The School of Communication & the Arts publishes culminating experience guidelines with a list of university-approved proofreaders, whom students contact and pay. Doctoral students in that school follow the doctoral handbook and their faculty mentor.
Where your program leaves the choice of editor to you, our editors can give an essay, thesis or dissertation a final check for grammar, consistency and format.
