To apply for the Domestic Violence Clinic, students must first be eligible for admission under the D.C. student practice rule.   Second, all students must submit the general application form for all clinics online by 5:00 p.m. on March 27, 2012.  Finally, all students who list the Domestic Violence Clinic as their first choice must also complete the Domestic Violence Application Form.  You may also pick up a hard copy of the Application Form at the Clinic office.  The Domestic Violence Clinic Application Form must be returned to our offices in Room 334 no later than 5 p.m. on April 3, 2013. 

Students who satisfy the above criteria form the pool for selection.  We give priority to students with interest, experience, or enthusiasm about domestic violence issues, women’s rights, or litigation in general.  We also give preference to students entering their final year of law school.
