Public Interest Fellowships for Law Students of Color
Investing in leaders of tomorrow.
It’s not enough to say we want a diverse legal community. As a national leading member of the profession, we have to invest in a diverse legal community. So we put our money where it counts: in the hands of high-achieving law students of color.
Our Goodwin Public Interest Fellowships for Law Students of Color offer financial awards to students of color who work in public interest positions the summer after their first year of law school. Selected fellows are guaranteed a "straight-to-callback" interview with a Goodwin Procter office of their choice in the fall interviewing season during their second year of law school. Fellows are also invited to participate in some of our summer associate program events during their summer at the public interest organization.
In addition to the three Goodwin Fellowships described above, we partner with our client Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company to provide an additional fellowship award, the MassMutual/Goodwin Public Interest Fellowship for Law Students of Color. MassMutual is also strongly committed to promoting diversity in our profession and in its business.
This program connects us with a wide array of talented students early in their legal careers who are committed to giving back to their communities.
The deadline to apply for the 2013 Goodwin Procter Public Interest Fellowships for Law Students of Color has now passed. Please email all questions to Fellowships@goodwinprocter.com.
