Externships: Putting Theory into Practice
Extern Applicants: Eligibility
In order to participate in the Externship Program, students must meet the following requirements:
- Completion of all first year required coursework (Civil Procedure, Contracts, Criminal Law, RWA, Property and Torts) prior to the beginning of the externship. Guest students are not eligible to participate in the program.
- Minimum G.P.A. of at least 73.0. First year students who apply should use mid-year grades as a guideline. Each student’s official GPA will be verified when grades become available.
- Satisfaction of any individual requirements of the participating program. Many sites have class standing requirements or course prerequisites. Please check individual program descriptions on the Current Opportunities page for these requirements.
- All credit hours earned in the Externship Program must count toward graduation, with one exception. Students who wish to enroll in a year-long externship may do so where at least three of the six credits earned will apply toward graduation.
For more information, consult the externship website under Applicant FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions).
