CLINICS AND EXTERNSHIPS

Clinical Common Application Procedure

All in-house clinics and the Prosecutors Program require that students submit:

1. A Clinical Common Application form (submitted online)

2. Written answers to the essay questions (submitted online as PDF attachments);

3. A current resume; and

4. An unofficial transcript (unofficial transcript accessible online saved as PDF)

The application will be made available at the beginning of February.

Individual clinics may also require or request interviews as part of the selection process. Students are not guaranteed an interview; interviews are at the individual professor's discretion. If you are applying to a clinic that uses interviews as part of the selection process, you will be contacted by the relevant clinic professor to set up an interview time after you submit your application.

As part of your Clinical Common Application form, you will identify the first-choice clinic you wish to apply for, as well as one alternate choice . You are not required to select an alternate choice clinic, but adding an alternate choice may improve your chances of getting in to a clinic. You cannot choose more than one first choice clinic. You will also be asked if you would like to apply for the LIT Fellowship , currently available only to those students enrolling in one of the following clinics: Family Advocacy, Health Law, Immigration Clinic, Juvenile Defenders, and Prosecutors Program. If you do not receive a place in your first-choice clinic, you will be considered for your alternate choice if space is still available. If you are not admitted to either your first or your alternate choice, you will be placed on a waitlist. If you do not get offered a slot off of the waitlist, you are guaranteed a spot in an externship program.
