Thursday, December 3, 11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m., Furman Hall, Room 214
Every year, the New York City Bar Association conducts an annual Diversity Fellowship Program through which first year students from eleven NYC area law schools are placed in participating New York area law firms, corporate law departments, and government offices as paid summer associates. The program provides an outstanding opportunity to work in the private and public sectors following the 1L year. The opportunity allows students to gain invaluable work experience, make important contacts, and in several instances, find an organization to which they would ultimately return upon graduation. NYU School of Law students have historically done extremely well in securing fellowships through the program.
The application deadline is after the Winter Break on Tuesday, January 19, 2016 at 5:00 p.m. Applications will be available on CSM/Symplicity (ID# 441552) beginning December 1; however, nothing needs to be done with the application and materials until AFTER final exams have been completed.
The information session will review the nature of the fellowship, the application process and deadlines, as well as information regarding the interviewing process. The information session will be videotaped for students unable to attend.
