Experiential Learning Enrollment

Enrollment for most experiential learning offerings takes place through a combined application process each spring. This allows students to apply a year in advance for multiple offerings to maximize their learning opportunities. LL.M. and transfer students will have the opportunity to apply in a limited application cycle during the summer.  

The timeline below shows the events to learn about next year's offerings and the deadlines for applications. Students are strongly encouraged to attend one of these events to speak with former students and instructors. The deadline for applications for fall 2024 and spring 2025 is April 5, 2024 at noon.

Selection Criteria

Each instructor has their own method of selection, but all instructors consider the strength of the application, the applicant's clearly thought out reasons for wanting to take the course, and the applicant's previous applications to the course. Students may not take an externship and a clinic in the same semester. To ensure the fullest access to offerings, students generally may not take more than one clinic. Students may take multiple externships or policy labs and may take a clinic and externships in different semesters.  Students must have permission to take more than one externship in the same semester.
