Externships are for summer, fall and spring. These programs are coordinated through the individual law schools; however, applicants may submit their application packet directly to the chambers of the judge(s). It is preferred that the packet for an externship include the following:

a) Cover letter
b) Resume
c) Undergraduate grades and law school grades (if applicable)
d) Writing sample (under ten pages recommended)

Applications are accepted up to six months in advance of the semester for which the student is applying. Interviews may then be scheduled.

If an applicant has interviewed with a judge and is offered a position by another judge, they should contact the chambers where they are under consideration, by telephone, or by letter, and advise the judge that they have accepted a position and are withdrawing their application.
