- All students must be bar certifiable. To be bar certifiable, a student must have successfully completed 41 credits, including Evidence, Civil Procedure, and Criminal Justice (both the A & B curricula satisfy the latter two requirements) and be approved by the Bar Character Committee before clinic classes begin. (See #3-4 of the Clinic Enrollment Policies)
- In addition to submitting the general clinic application online by 5:00 p.m. on March 27, students must fill out the JJC supplemental application and submit it to room 127 by 5 p.m. on April 3.
- Those students who satisfy the above criteria form the pool for selection. We will select some students who have exceptional prior experience in programs involving juvenile law or criminal law, or some other experience that, in the judgment of the professors, will enhance the pedagogical experience of the class as a whole. We expect that no more than four or five of the slots in the Clinic will be filled in this way. The remaining students will be chosen by lottery.
- One semester and two semester applicants go into the same lottery. If a student is chosen for a section they do not prefer (as indicated on the application), they may accept or decline the slot. If the position is declined, the student will be placed on the waiting list for the section they wanted in the first place.
- Any student accepting a position in this clinic may not withdraw after April 30, 2012 except for extraordinary reasons.
