Those interested in criminal law may select to work with designated supervising lawyers at the States Attorney's Office, Public Defender's Office, or the U.S. Attorney's Office. Many externships offer the externs opportunities to obtain a 711 license and appear in court. If you are interested in learning more about externship opportunities or in applying to the program, please see Professor Vivien Gross in Room 617. More information about the program and an accompanying application form will be available in the Law Offices reception area and in the Careers Services office as of Monday, October 12, 1998. All applicants must have scheduled and completed an interview with Professor Gross prior to turning in their applications.
Applications are now available for the spring.
The spring applications are due no later than November 9. To be considered for a place, ALL students must complete and return a completed Law Offices application, which can be obtained in the Reception area of Suite 600. Next, priority will be given to the top ten students on each first choice waiting list who did not turn down a place for fall 1998, who were on the waiting list in the division they have marked as first choice, and who submitted their spring application by the due date. New students who have submitted their applications by the due date will be selected in the Law Offices lottery. The total number of available places during the fall semester is dependent upon the number of supervising attorneys in each practice group.
