Every LCLD Member organization is invited to select one or more 1L LCLD Scholars to participate in a summer internship at their organization and attend a summit designed exclusively for 1L LCLD Scholars.  Click here to find the agenda for the 2023 1L Scholars Virtual Summit.

Eligibility and Application Process

Step 1: Register with LCLD.

Registration for the 2023 Scholars program is closed. Registration for the 2024 program will open on October 2023.

 

Step 2: Hire your Scholar.

1L LCLD Scholar candidates must apply directly to summer internships at the LCLD Member organization(s) of their choice, beginning December 1, 2023. Each Member will independently identify, select, and hire its respective 1L Scholars. 1L Scholar candidates must be enrolled as first-year law students and in good standing at an ABA-approved law school.

 

Step 3: Enroll your Scholar.

LCLD Member organizations will provide their Scholars’ information to LCLD, officially enrolling them in the program, beginning in December 2023. Once enrolled, Scholars will receive information from LCLD on how to register themselves for the 2024 1L Scholars Virtual Summit.
