Is there anything specific you are looking for in the application?

For LLM students, do international law courses taken in undergraduate programs count?

You mentioned making connections and finding externships within the UN, in addition to whatever placements you are able to secure for the program. Can you talk a little bit more about that?

I understand that the days are not yet set, could you please explain how this will fit in with the other courses we would like to take during the semester?

Is there a possibility to look for our own placement or is that organized solely through CLS?

Is there a course outline/syllabus available for the seminar that could be shared?

Is there a specific number of spots for JDs vs LLMs?

May I ask who will be reviewing our applications? Are we drafting them for your review, or a panel of professors and practitioners, or the UN offices that we may work for?

Where will the recording of this session be posted?

Orla, the recording will be available on the Externship’s website

Thank you!

Is it possible to do a CLS externship and an independent externship in the same semester?

This is not recommended because of the time commitment.

Hi! Thank you for your presentation! I have a question regarding the application process; when writing the application, do we state explicitly the agencies where we would like to work? How do we know which areas will have available spots? (Sorry if the question was asked already, I couldn’t join earlier)

does the credit of externship count towards LL.M NY bar required courses? does the fieldwork satisfy the pro bono requirements of NY bar? Thanks!

Only the seminar credits will count towards the NY Bar required courses

The fieldwork hours satisfy the pro bono requirement for the NYS bar

Thank you!

I think it satisfies the pro bono requirement for the NY bar but not the CLS requirement

No ratio exists
