Description:

Your completed online application package must include the following items:
  • Resume
  • Unofficial or Official Law School Transcript
  • Personal Statement (no more than two (2) pages, double spaced)

Please include the grades you have at the time of submission; you may update your online application by following the link you will receive in a confirmation email upon submission.

It is not necessary to apply to the summer associate program separately; this completed application denotes consideration for the entire summer program/scholarship package. In your personal statement, please discuss your life experiences and how they have shaped you as a person and an aspiring lawyer. We invite you to interpret this topic broadly. Topics that you might (but need not) address include (but are not limited to):
  • how your life experiences have affected your values and perspectives;
  • obstacles or challenges that you have overcome; and/or
  • academic or leadership accomplishments.

A selection panel will evaluate complete applications, considering such factors as an overall commitment to diversity, work experience and academic achievement. Late or incomplete applications may be reviewed at the discretion of the selection panel. Finalists will be selected and interviewed for the Fellowship Program after all applications have been reviewed.
