Goodwin celebrates the 18th year of their Diversity Fellowship programs and would like to share some exciting information about this year’s 1L Diversity Fellowship program.

Goodwin’s 1L Diversity Fellowship program application has officially launched on their website and will be open through February 2, 2024. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, and they encourage students to apply as early as possible.

Goodwin’s 1L Diversity Fellowship Program

Our 1L Diversity Fellowship program provides first-year law students with the opportunity to be a 1L summer associate in Goodwin’s 10-week summer program, following their first year of law school. Fellows will have the opportunity to spend their first six weeks working in their preferred Goodwin office and the final four weeks of the program working at the direction of a Goodwin client. Fellows will also be invited to participate in the Leadership Council on Legal Diversity’s 1L Scholars Summit and be eligible to earn an offer to return to Goodwin for their 2L summer along with additional scholarship opportunities.

We are also happy to provide you with a personal account from former fellow Sydney Simmons, who recently spoke to us alongside Goodwin client Cerevel about how she was encouraged to develop her talents, pursue her interest in life sciences, and explore a client-side experience.
