In submitting this application, I am indicating that I have familiarized myself with the requirements of the externship program by attending an information session, by reviewing the materials on the intranet about the program, or both. I agree to notify the externship program of the results of my placement applications – either my acceptance of a placement, my failure to secure a satisfactory placement, or my decision not to accept an offered placement. Electronic Signature (Please type name) Date * To become a certified legal intern, students must have completed the first-year core curriculum and at least three semesters of law school. Many placements are available that do not require certified legal intern status, but students wanting to make appearances permitted under the certified legal intern rules may wish to consider delaying their application for a placement until they fulfill the requirements.
