How
to Use this Resource:
The
following is a comprehensive listing of diversity scholarships, clerkships,
mentorships, internships, conventions and job fairs available to law students.
The definition of what constitutes a diverse applicant varies significantly
among the various opportunities. Often the opportunities are specific to
persons of a particular racial, ethnic, religious or socio-economic background,
women, or persons that identify as LGBT. However, just as often, opportunities
are available to persons who are advancing the cause of diversity within their
community, without regard to the individual’s own diversity status, or to
persons that have faced adversity and thereby have a diverse perspective on
life and the practice of law.
The opportunities are arranged according
to the due date for submission of application materials so any opportunities
that are interesting to you should be explored well in advance of the month in
which they are listed. Any questions about these opportunities can be directed
to the sponsoring organization or to your Career Development Office advisor.
